Paper seems to have a decent amount of internal sizing to give it structure. It's a shame I opted to do a fairly simple, very sunlight watercolor illustration for this fieldtest, as this paper seems like it would handle large amounts of water and significant working well. Colors dry almost as vibrant and saturated as they go down- a nice change of pace from other watercolor papers that often dry desaturated and too light. The surface on this paper is really nice, handles brushwork well, with little unintended bleeding or spidering. Seems like it's easy to pull tight detail. Pros: Colors are really vibrant and saturated on this paper- there's no speckling (one of the issues I have with Stonehenge Aqua Coldpress) or fading, so this is a really good paper for beautiful, saturated color. No buckling Cons: Fairly expensive compared to other papers Somewhat tricky to find- Blick, Jerry's, Plaza, Michaels don't carry it Only 10 sheets in a block Music: Kevin MacLeod Dream Culture Calmant Meditation Impromptu 02 Windswept Silver Blue Light Meditation Impromput 01 Snow Drop Meditation Impromptu 03 On the Passing of Time
