Great for Artists! A friend of mine paints a lot so I usually end up getting her art supplies of some sort for gift giving occasions. This past birthday I got her this water color paper. I had never really thought about how you might need different paper for different types of paint, luckily this fact was pointed out to me. She was very happy with this type, I guess the main difference is it’s a heavier weight than other types of paper so it holds water color better. In short- great gift for water color painters.
Misleading I bought two of these pads in the anticipation that I would use them rather quickly. However, eager as I was to begin painting, I quickly realized that it was nothing more than ordinary sketch paper. It is great sketch paper, and for other light materials, but the paper curled and peeled when water was introduced. Overall I was unsatisfied and disappointed, but chose to keep them for sketch pads.
Doesn’t hold water Like another reviewer, I, too, experienced this paper curling like ordinary paper. I can’t believe it is marketed as watercolor paper. The paint bled through to the reverse side, and the paper curled and creased. I have tried it with a number of different techniques, and I am thoroughly dissatisfied.
