Arches Watercolor Pad, 9 x 12

It was great.

Watercolor rough is very painterly.

Arches is simply the best

Great quality rough watercolor paper. Watercolor goes on easily and flows into the crevices well. Will buy again.

As far as value and quality: the best!!! It is always a great choice! For beginners again Arches is wonderful. However, it is on the pricey side and I like having a variety of watercolor paper for practice.

This is my favorite watercolor paper. It is sturdy enough to really saturate and I don’t tape it down but hold it up and let the water and paint flow where I want it to go. It has a nice surface texture gives very good textures when used dry. It is less expensive than 300 pound which I also like, but can be taped down with good results.

I buy this product and take it with me while traveling. I love Arches but I cant always afford a whole block of paper. Arches is an excellent watercolor paper especially for loose painting because I use a lot of water.

lovely paper to work with

It was actually less rough than I expected and I was able to get interesting brush strokes on the paper. More so than Cold Pressed. It will not be my goto paper but when I want more textures, Rough workd great.

Fair price for a great product!
