    5.0 out of 5 stars Great quality watercolor paper!

    I bought these (3pak) on the recommendation of a You Tuber. She’s been painting daily for 25 years and says she’s tried every paper out there. For the price, these are really good quality. Nice and heavy with the right amount of texture. I’m not sure what the paper consists of as far as cotton content , but the water absorbency is excellent. I do quite a bit of wet on wet and negative painting and it holds up just fine to multiple water applications. I even use both sides of the paper. Before I bought these I found that I had stacks of paintings, all different sizes stashed in different drawers. Some are of me trying a new technique or brush stroke drills. Now I can keep them, if I want to, in the tablets. If I want to trash them, that’s easy enough because the paper is perforated. I can date them on the front so I can look back and see the progress I’ve made. Also, they are nice for travel. The size isn’t as intimidating as a full size of expensive watercolor paper. So glad I took that You Tubers advise! I think they cost approximately $23 for 3 tablets.

    I have bought other sketchbooks and in all of them, I end up with crumpled and ruined pages due to the moisture from the watercolors. With this sketchbook, the pages are perfect for watercolor painting, they absorb water very well and crumple very little.One thing to keep in mind is that since it has a small format, you need to consider using fine brushes or you won’t be able to paint fine details in watercolors. I use this sketchbook as a travel journal and draw whenever I have free time, and this size is perfect for me.I highly recommend it to start your work professionally and at a very good price. When you receive the sketchbook, it might look a bit plain, but I assure you it is a very good product.

    On Bolo, you can get three notebooks of 30 pages each for a little over $22. The paper is 5.5 X 8.5. I like the heft of the paper. It holds the water well when the paper is taped to a board. The paper does not distort, stands up to a good amount of blotting and rubbing, and displays the pigment well. I use these books with my adult students. I think these books are great for beginners to mid level watercolorists.

    I learned about this product from a watercolor artist on YouTube. She talks about it all the time so I thought I would give it a try. I am so happy I did. It really is great paper. The size for me is perfect. I like the spiral binding and the fact that each page is perforated. What a nice bonus. The weight of the paper is also ideal. It handles wet in wet watercolor wonderfully and has a nice texture. So many good selling points. Mostly though, is the price. I can't believe the price! Three notebooks of 30 sheets each, for $23. It is definitely my new affordable go-to paper.

    Now I'm not a very good artist but I do understand how paints should work. That being said, I bought this for my arteza gouaches and winsor and newton dry watercolor set, and let me explain that this paper handles wonderfully with both.It's very thick, so there is no bleed-through. The paints themselves were vibrant on the paper and easily managed without damaging the paper or ruining the pigments. There is a very slight bend to the paper so I would recommend tapping it down on a surface for full-page pieces and allow it to dry to minimize any bending. It can handle being wetted pretty intensely and water is easily removed with a paper towel without too much absorption into the paper.This is by no means a professional 100% cotton paper, (I do not believe it is cotton paper at all) but out of all the cheap papers I have tried, this is actually very high quality and handles extremely well compared to other brands. This would be ideal for practicing your paints or swatches depending on your needs, as well as the perfect paper for beginners of watercolor and gouache to practice techniques on. For the priceI would very much recommend giving these a try if you're a beginner or just looking for good quality cheaper papers.

    Excellent quality!

    These books are excellent quality! The paper size is great for practice paintings etc but because they are perforated you can easily remove your successful paintings and make them into cards etc. I do tend to tape off the entire page if I'm doing a wet on wet because the way the pages in the book sit, you can too easily get paint on the pages underneath. Tape solves this and gives a nice border anyway! I've just reordered. I have very nice $$$ watercolor paper for projects but for practice and just messing about, these books are excellent!

    SORPRESA...!!!
