Perfectly Textured Watercolor Envelopes

Based on my observations, this is a top-quality art paper product perfect for professional artists. The texture is great for watercolor painting, and the envelopes are thick and sturdy enough to withstand mailing. However, the price point may be a bit high for some artists on a budget. Overall, these envelopes are a must-have for any artist looking to add a touch of creativity to their correspondence.

Pros
  • High-quality paper and texture for watercolor painting
Cons
  • Not suitable for non-watercolor mediums

Small but powerful.

They are much smaller than I initially thought, even with the correct size on the website. So if you're thinking of painting something complex, you'd better have a bunch of fine, thin brushes. However, they are great for washing and then washing. Strathmore makes some of the finest watercolor paper on the market. So you can't go wrong here. Just be aware that it's small, and duct tape makes it even smaller.

Pros
  • Heavyweight watercolor cards have excellent surface strength and will not warp.
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other brushes

hard to peel off

watercolor paper pads have been recommended by several artists I've followed on youtube and have been said to fall apart easily. NOT I bought 2 Strathmore 12 X 14 because I always use Strathmore paper. My painting was ruined when I tried the metal spatula like they did in the video. I tried my precision knife which worked better after a few tries and 3 more sheets were torn. I waited a long time to return the unused one so I now cut out the sheets before painting and ended up usually getting 8…

Pros
  • cold press finish
Cons
  • unreliable
