Review on 🎨 Arches Watercolor Paper Pad, 140 LB, Cold Press - Ideal for Artists, 9"x12 by Morgan Gilmore

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Premium Cotton Paper

Arches Watercolor is by far the best 100% cotton fiber paper available in pillow form at a reasonable price. It's thick and sturdy, 140 lbs (300 gsm), absorbency and consistency, you'll find it at Arches. The texture is rough and it's great for both amateur and professional artists. It absorbs color evenly, allows you to blend edges, excellent layering, and doesn't damage easily when removing color for highlights. It's strong enough to withstand multiple washes, masking liquids, scrapers, and artist's masking tape (I prefer Frog Tape) without damage resist I am always very satisfied with the quality of this paper and I use it for all my watercolors.

Pros
  • Watercolor Paper
Cons
  • Unbelievable Price

The back side of this paper has a fine tooth and withstands a lot of erasure
