📚 Strathmore 467-8 STR-467-8 Watercolor Art Journal - 48 Sheets, Size: 8.5 x 11 Inches, White, No.140, 24 Inches Long Review

I saw the good reviews and decided to test this paper. It does not take color evenly and leaves an undesirable look when mixing pigments. I bought this to avoid the cotton paper prices but you get what you pay for. This is good practice paper but not ideal for professional painting.

The weight of the magazine is wonderful, the hard cover is heavy and solid. When you open it, it feels like it's about to creak. Celebration. Good sign I thought. Paper is what matters, and paper is THICK, thicker than cardboard. You can hit him and get a loud BLOW for your troubles. Your first thought is to run to your brushes and paint to see what it will be. Open the last page and do a test. Maybe try a lighter color (okay, *I* did that) and touch the side with the brush.
