Arches Watercolour Paper 300gsm 560 x 760mm

Arches Watercolour Paper are made with 100 % long cotton fibres giving the paper its beauty, a natural, lasting whiteness and an inimitable touch as well as strength.

Made on a cylinder mould, quality close to that of paper made by craft methods. The slow turning of the cylinder enables the fibres to be deposited evenly and spread in all directions over the wire. The fibres are distributed evenly, the paper slackens uniformly when wet, giving the artist more control. This process can produce papers with a high grammage and exceptional resistance to scratching and erasing, when they are gelatin sized to the core. Only papermaking on a cylinder mould can produce paper with deckle edges.

Ideal for watercolour painting, as for all wet techniques such as ink, gouache and acrylic. Comes in three different textures Hot Press (smooth), Cold Press (Medium texture) and Rough. Choose from 185gsm, 300gsm and 640gsm. 356gsm can be ordered in by request.

My Favorite Paper

I use this paper all the time with Acrylic paints - I love how the papers roughness makes it feel like you are painting on canvas. That deckle edge looks beautiful float framed.
