Fyess 80Pcs 100% Rag Cotton White Watercolor Paper 140lb Heavyweight Paper Watercolor Paper Cards Cold Press Paper Bulk Watercolor Drawing Student Artist for Kids,6 x 9 inch

Great value.I'm new to watercolor, so I really don't have much comparison, but I like the quality.The size is also great and easy to make smaller!Doesn't buckle with regular wet painting on dry sheet, but I haven't done a total wet spray down... but it's quite thick, so I feel like it would hold up!(Unlike a larger sheet I tried which was thinner and buckled)

perfect product!

This is the second time I have purchased this paper. I use it for hand painted holiday cards and for trying out new techniques. The paper arrived undamaged. The paper is thick and sturdy, it does not buckle when wet. It is textured vs smooth which I prefer. The size is perfect for cards, I cut it in half and mount it on 5x7 card stock. At less than a penny a sheet, I think it’s really good value for cards and practice.

We love the size and weight of this watercolor paper. The fact that is already a nice 6x9 and loose has made my daughter want to experiment with it a lot. It came through a lot of abuse from different media (including a little spackle spreader) without any shredding or tearing. The one which was sprayed with water has curled up quite a bit, but just needs to be flattened under a heavy book or something. We did use a masking/washi tape to create borders and keep it on the table and the paper did stick to it and rip a little when removing. I don’t know if that was the tape or the paper, just something to keep in mind. The size is great for folding and making cards and lots of fun for all levels.

These are 9 x 6 inch and 100% cotton, 140 lbs as advertised. They have a slight pattern on the surface that is a little different than full price brands such as Arches or Saunders Waterford but it honestly isn't bad, and because of the low price I have become a lot free-er in my painting practice because I am not so afraid to ruin my more costly paper and have been able to try more techniques. I do wish they had a larger size that was this thick ( they have a larger size that is thinner). All said and done I am buying another 80 pack two months after buying the first pack to keep practicing these loose techiques. See attached photos of a couple of recent paintings made with this paper: ( the light in the photos wasn't the best)

This is a best "budget" cotton paper I have used so far. Firstly, you can't beat the price, I have painted on cellulose paper long enough to know when the paper remains wet for longer period of time and I dont have to struggle/rush to blend things, that I have a good cotton paper in my hands. I dont claim its Arches or whatever, but if you're a budding artist or hobbiest, this paper is good enough and won't hinder your ability to learn on cotton paper at a reasonable price. Piece here was created with masking tape, student grade but decent paints and I did quite a bit of scratching, scrubbing and lifting and it handled all of that like a champ. I would re-iterate that I don't claim this to be Arches or have best archival quality or that sizing wont go bad if you hoard it for years etc. All of that left to be seen but definitely a good one for the price.

This paper is decent for watercolor. It allows paint movement. There is ample time to lift. The finish is nice. It holds color well. The one problem is masking. The top layer tends to tear if I use any type of masking tape or fluid. I’ve tried all of the removal tricks to no avail. However, if you use them for miniatures, your paint isn’t too wet, and you don’t feel the need to mask, it’s a good value. If you use very wet techniques, the paper will curl.

Lovely paper
