Hahnemühle Watercolor Paper from The Collection is 100% cotton rag mould-made paper that's natural white, acid-free, lightfast, and highly resistant to aging. This professional-grade artist paper features a very durable paper surface that is well suited for demanding watercolor techniques. The fibers do not lift, rub off, or loosen even when applying multiple layers of color or when using masking fluids and tapes. This paper lets you use the most beautiful colors and create remarkable wet-on-wet paintings. It's especially suitable for wet painting techniques, including watercolor, gouache, tempera, and acrylic, but also offers a beautiful surface for drawing.
Each sheet is surface sized with synthetic vegan sizing for excellent color flow. Blocks are glued and gauzed on all four sides to ensure flatness when wet without the need for stretching. Perfect for plein air painting!
Cold Press - This lightly textured paper surface is the most popular finish for watercolor paintings. It reflects light well, retaining the transparent quality of watercolors. The light tooth makes it easier to achieve certain details, while the slightly rougher texture shows off granulating colors beautifully. Not limited to watercolors, it's also recommended for gouache, acrylic, airbrush, graphite, pastels, and charcoal. A versatile paper texture.
Hot Press - Hot Press paper is the smoothest of watercolor papers, making it ideal for detailed artwork because the surface allows for the most delicate of details. For this reason, it's a favorite with illustrators and botanical artists. It also digitally scans well due to this lack of texture. Hot Press is also recommended for gouache, acrylic, colored pencil, pen and ink, and technical pens.
Rough - Rough finish paper has an effect close to that of handmade paper, with a strongly pronounced tooth that naturally shows lots of texture in painting and highlights the effects of granulating colors. It's ideally suited for bold, expressive techniques rather than detail. Rough Press is also recommended for acrylics, pastel, and charcoal.
