Review on MEEDEN 5X7" Watercolor Paper Textured Surface Pad, Cold Pressed, 20 Sheets (140lb/300gsm) Art Sketchbook for Painting & Drawing, Wet, Mixed Media by Dominic Maxwell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good paper for beginners

Pretty decent block watercolor paper. I was skeptical at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's good. The only thing I had an issue with was how thin it was and it was a bit difficult to separate from the block. That was my only main problem. Another small downside was that if you don't use enough water and paint it can dry out quickly and then if you still paint the first layer it can kinda mess up the look especially if you want that first layer to be a is uniform. It can warp if you keep re-wetting the surface, so it's best to tape the edges so you don't ruin your work. It's also a good inexpensive paper for simple projects.

Pros
  • Excellent general properties
Cons
  • Appearance
