Publisher: Strathmore Paper

Details: This is a nice little paper that that I own. I have been using it for quite a bit to make high quality watercolor paintings. I chose to photograph the blank paper to show you how it looks. I also showed you a finished watercolor painting. The paper belongs to the Strathmore 400 series. It is a type of heavyweight, cold press paper. It is designed for watercolor paintings. Watercolor paintings are pretty popular among artists. Just about every painting has done at least one watercolor painting. 

This paper pad is designed for make a painting with even finishes. It is strong, so it is useful for lifting and scrapping paint applications. The paper is also naturally white. Strathmore considers its paper a type of artform. They designed specifically for painters. They have been making watercolor papers for the last 125 years. This paper pad also takes pen rather nicely. I normally combine pens with my watercolor paintings. I hope you find it useful. If you like watercolor paintings, this is the paper pad for you.
