Strathmore Watercolor Paper Pack 11"X14"-6 Sheets -140311

I love painting on this paper . Doesn’t curl or warp and the granulation of the watercolor is quite beautiful . Making hand painted wedding invitations for my daughter per her request!

When I first got into watercolor painting, I experimented with all sorts of watercolor paper including this, Strathmore 140-205 Ready Cut Watercolor, Cold Press, 5" x 7", White, 25 Sheets. I liked 'em, but I didn't really realize how good they are. A few years down the road with lots of experience with watercolors, I can really appreciate this paper. It's 100% cotton, and after talking to the folks at Strathmore a while back, I discovered it's also vegan. Yay, Strathmore! It holds paint well, it absorbs liquid at the perfect rate, the sizing is ideal for wet washes and dry brush techniques. Paints look great on this paper, and it never gets in the way of what I'm doing, which some paper does. You may already know that Strathmore's 100 series is their entry level paper, then there's the 200 series, 300 series and 400 series, and this - their 500 series - is their highest quality watercolor paper series. And you can tell the difference. So I'm happy I came back to these 5x7 series 500 sheets. I think I'll order some bigger Strathmore 500 paper, too. Good stuff! I'd say it's good for every level of watercolor painter.

Really nice watercolor paper. I have been using these papers for my homemade greeting cards instead of stamping on cardstock with ink! The price was great too!

I have lots of watercolor paper by many different manufacturers. I was surprised how much I LOVED this paper! I used Neocolor II and watercolor pencils on it.

Paper quality is surprisingly good for the price. Watercolor lifts well and dries fast (I know some people dont like that, but the way I like to paint it suits me.) Only reason it's 4 stars is because it came a bit scuffed up, it was obvious that somewhere along the line, someone had dropped it or something. But it was just cover damage, the paper is all fine. It's not as good as other paper I've tried but it definitely has the best value for what you get. It's good size for traveling but not ideal for something like urban sketching, I think it would be better as a block and not a pad.

I order this watercolor paper often. It's precut and the right size for painting on my small desk. I love the feel, thickness, and how it holds the colors. I always tape my paper down, so there no warping.

This watercolor paper is the perfect size for how I do wet on dry watercoloring. This paper is hot press, so the surface is very smooth and takes detail well. I like it more than cold press, which has a definite surface texture. I am very pleased with this purchase and have gotten it in a smaller size too. Attached is an unfinished watercolor painting, but you will get the idea.

This is the first time I've bought this little sketchbook. I'm pleasantly surprised by the quality of this sketchbook. The paper is watercolor in coldpress, and I like the fact that the cover is flexible. It comes with a large elastic band to close the sketchbook. Ideal for outdoors, because: it's a small format. However, it's a shame there aren't more pages, and I'm still waiting for the 7 x 10 format to be available. Thank you

If you are new to watercolor, don't wait. Go ahead and treat yourself to the quality paper. I recently switched to professional grade watercolour paper, thanks to YouTube MindofWatercolor Before I thought... I shouldn't buy professional paper until I am.... what... a professional artist?? Seriously, try the Strathmore 500 series. You can even cut these cards in half for tiny test paintings and sampling techniques if you are worried about the cost. This is a night and day contrast after Canson cold press. Colours are vibrant, and layer & lift easily. Extremely happy with the product.

Es una libreta muy delgada de grosor y con aparentemente pocas hojas pero de muy buena calidad, me sorprendió mucho la resistencia casi perfecta al agua y varias capas de pintura gouache, todo con mínima deformación en las hojas. Muy recomendada para prácticas o cualquiera que disfrute de utilizar medios húmedos.

Buen precio y calidad

سيء جدا يخرب الرسم بالالوان المائية

Das Papier ist qualitativ sehr hochwertig und lässt sich wunderbar für kleine Aquarell Bilder nutzen. Die Maße des Papiers sind kleiner als A5, das sollte man beim Kauf natürlich wissen :), aber ich benutze es eh nur für Kakao-Karten und schneide es mir dann immer zurecht. Ich verwende Aquarellfarben + Buntstifte für meine Bilder
