Product Description
At the core of these journals lie 24 sheets (48 pages) of the famous ARCHES® Aquarelle paper, recognized worldwide for its outstanding qualities:
- 100% cotton paper: the colours stand out better and remain brighter when they dry. The cotton gives the paper an inimitable beauty and feel, as well as strength and longevity.
- Made on a cylinder mould, its quality is close to that of paper made using craft methods.
- Gelatin sized “to the core”: this preserves the lustre and transparency of the colours whilst preventing paints from penetrating into the paper. It offers the ability to overlay colour washes with no fear of damaging the surface and provides strength to resist erasing without linting.
- Natural white, OBA-free.
- Two textures are available to suit all artistic styles: cold pressed and hot pressed.
- Compatible with a wide range of techniques: watercolour, acrylic, gouache, ink, felt, coloured pencil, sanguine crayon, pastel, graphite, pen, collage and more.
Suitable both for quick sketches and elaborate compositions, they become an essential ally for beginners and professionals alike.
- Square (8.3 in x 8.3 in / 21 x 21 cm): for artists seeking an original creative space.
Their 185 gsm grammage is ideal for wet-on-dry or minimally wet watercolour painting or mixed techniques.
