Keterangan
Winsor & Newton's watercolour papers are designed to withstand saturation, and this gummed block keeps the paper stretched as it dries. The finished piece is then removed free from any buckling - no taping or stretching required. Mould-made from 100% cotton on a traditional Italian cylinder mould, this paper offers a bright, natural whiteness of archival quality.
KEY FEATURES:
- Hot-pressed paper - the smoothest watercolour surface with almost no tooth
- Even surface ideal for consistent washes and fine detail work
- 100% cotton paper for superior strength, durability, and longevity
- Internally and externally sized for optimal water absorbency and pigment dispersion
- Acid-free and free from optical brighteners - archival quality that resists yellowing over time
- Gummed on all 4 sides to keep sheets pre-stretched, eliminating the need to tape or wet-stretch paper before painting
- Heavy board backing doubles as a rigid drawing surface for outdoor or studio use
- Larger 12" x 16" format gives more room for expansive compositions, landscapes, and studio pieces than the standard 10" x 14" size
- Sheets can be carefully removed with a palette knife once your painting is complete
- Made in Italy on a traditional mould
IDEAL FOR:
Watercolour, gouache, ink, watercolour pencil, and watercolour markers. Especially suited to fine detail work, portraiture, botanical illustration, and smooth, even washes where a textured surface would work against you. The larger format also suits studio landscapes and pieces needing more compositional space.
WHO IT'S FOR:
Ideal for watercolour artists who want a portable, ready-to-use surface for plein air or studio painting without the hassle of stretching paper by hand. The bigger 12x16 size is a natural step up for artists who've outgrown smaller blocks and want more room to work.
