Description

Use the Art Spectrum Smooth (or hot press HP) Watercolour Pad paper for creating art with intricate, fine details. It creates crisp edges, and a polished finish, such as photorealistic paintings or detailed illustrations. It is ideal for artists wanting to capture precise details. Great for those who plan to scan their work because the texture won’t transfer through to the print. However, it’s less suitable for large, flat washes of colour or for blending techniques because it dries quickly and is not very absorbent.  Art Spectrum has collaborated with the Magnani Paper Mill in Italy to develop an exceptional hot press smooth surface.  Art Spectrum Watercolour Pads are also available in Medium and Rough surfaces. The pads are available in A5, A4 and A3 with 15 Sheets each.

What to use Art Spectrum Smooth Watercolour Pad Paper for:

• Superior Absorbency: Water and pigment soak evenly into the 100% cotton fibre sheet, preventing unwanted puddling and helping you build smooth washes.
• Detailed Artwork: This paper gives you the ideal surface for sharp lines and fine ink work. Create highly detailed illustrations without sacrificing the ability to handle broader washes.
• Archival Durability: The museum-grade, acid-free formulation ensures the paper will not yellow, tarnish, or degrade over time.
• Reliable Thickness: Each sturdy 300gsm sheet resists buckling or warping, even when you apply generous amounts of water or heavy pigment
