Shannon PerrieShannon Perrie: The media could not be loaded.  This is really good watercolor paper for the price. It is not cotton and so there are differences in its performance compared to cotton, but it is still extremely workable. And personally for some watercolor effects I find non cotton papers preferable. Shhh, don’t tell lol. Things I especially like about this paper (other than the price point) are the color (it is a brighter white than some brands), that it has a relatively smooth surface for incorporating dry media and that it is quite sturdy. Things that I dislike are the size of this pad, 11”x15” is one inch over the commonly frameable 11”x14” size and that makes it a bit inconvenient. It either must be taped off to 11”x14” or you’ll end up having to pay much more to frame your finished pieces, so you may want to keep that in mind before starting a painting. It’s not a huge...

Kelly: Love this brand of watercolor paper. I use it for my acrylic inks and acrylic paints. It has the perfect amount of absorbency. Not too much, not too little. Great price too! These are much more expensive at big box stores and with my prime membership, I got it the day after ordering. My trusted brand.

Mj: Llegó en buen estado, resistente a varias capas de agua. Sólo la foto no coincide con el tamaño real aunque la especificación dice las medidas correctas.

ArtingInMuhPJs: The first this I did was have painter’s tape ready and back-roll (start at outer edge and loosely roll backwards into itself) the whole roll. It’s easier with two people and an empty tube mailer or similar to tape and roll into but can be done fine without either, and I have physical disabilities. I then left it for around a week. This pretty much erases the dreaded page curl problem you get from some rolled papers. Trust me. Do this step before trying to jump right in. Patience really is a virtue 😁
After that 5-6 days I started using. Assessing as a low to mid-range watercolor product I love this paper!

Pros-
Can’t beat the price per square inch. I listed that first because why else do you buy in a bulk roll? To be frugal. 🤷🏼‍♀️
Lovely surface. Not as toothy as a lot of cold-press but not quite as smooth as hot-press. It’s like having the silky water/paint flow of HP with a bit more control of the CP. Best of best worlds for my liking.
Takes a lot of water, multiple washes and working without pulling, and multi-temp blow dries. Doesn’t warp heavily but when it does buckle air drying with heat brings it back to its...
