Canson XL Series Watercolor Textured Paper Pad for Paint, Pencil, Ink, Charcoal, Pastel, and Acrylic, Fold Over, 140 Pound, 9x12 Inch, , 30 Sheets

We like this quality product for water color painting with our grandchildren ages 3 & up as it absorbs the paint.

This is my 3rd time buying this notebook, the 1st time from Amazon. I am an experienced watercolor artist and I love this one. I love the size, the weight of the paper, and that the pages tear out easily. I can paint on this and know exactly what I’m getting. It fits neatly in my art messenger bag. I will buy again :)

Im brand new to watercolor and this was recommended to me. Its excellent for my paintings and valued to allow me tons of practice.

I really like this paper. But I had to dock one star because mine came pretty badly damaged. About 7 sheets of it had to be trashed. Thats the only reason I docked one star. Minus the damage, its a 5-star product.

I dont use this for a watercolor painting per say.. it wont hold up for a heavy wash. but I use it for a pen and ink with a lite wash and its good for that. and you cant beat the price. I can save my arches or saunders for paintings. It came 3 days late though. I needed it when Amazon said it would be here. I had to teach a friend with my Arches, not this good practise paper. This is worth buying because its better than other non cotton paper.

My 3 kids have been doing art a LOT at home during Distance Learning (due to Covid19). This paper has been incredible! Perfect for beginners or more advanced....its thick and durable. We have done standard water color, resistance painting, foil transfer, and also used washi tape & stickers to create silhouettes that we paint around....peel them off super eaily, and it looks like a masterpiece!

I use watercolor cakes when I paint watercolors, I dont over saturate with water when i do so. That being said, my first painting i did on this didnt warp at all as I only painted two small birds in the center. But my second paint encompassed the whole paper and it warp very badly. Also, as soon as i took it out of packaging the pad was not attached to the covers. All the sheets of paper were glued together but not adhereing to the cover or binding. But for the price, it is hard to beat so i wasnt expecting super quality paper. But Ive bought this brand before and the paper was better then.

The sheets itself are much bigger than i expected (thats what she said). i am a beginner to watercolour and these sheets were perfect for me. very good quality, a bit expensive but worth it otherwise

This arrived fast without defect or damage. Excellent for the price point. Very sturdy good quality. Heavy enough to avoid warping on most applications & the paper texture is just perfect for most needs too. Can not beat Cansons long standing excellence. Five Stars.

As an artist ~ I adore using this paper. I use it for watercolor SOMETIMES . . . mostly I USE THIS PAPER for many different kinds of applications. . I enjoy the feel of it. I use it for pen and ink ~ color pencil ~ markers ~ graphite ~portrait work ~ landscapes ~ I use it ! Oh. I said that I. Well, you get the picture. Its MY paper of choice.
