Review: Travel quality watercolor paper which is a great gift - Great size for travel, well known watercolor paper which is excellent for artists, has been used for decades, extremely durable , has the ability to take watercolors nicely absorbing them evenly, you can remove areas you don’t want or lighten by using water and blotting. The paper holds up well when you do this wash. It’s a great value, especially when you want quality paper for travel or smaller projects.
Review: Consistent Quality - Arches Travel Pad is perfect in so many ways. Spiral bound makes it easy to use and the heavy paper holds up well for multiple washes. The size allows me to throw it in a case so I always have it with me. Once I tried the Arches brand I noticed the difference from other papers. The Winsor Newton paints I use are more vibrant and remain true without becoming muddy. As others have said, it is a little more expensive but when you spend your value time on a piece, you want the best tools available. My order arrived in shrink wrap in a bubble envelope in perfect condition in a very short period of time. Can't ask for more than that!

## Features

- Prized Paper - The long fibers in each sheet of the Arches travel watercolor spiral pad provide timeless beauty and an inimitable touch; This 6x10in watercolor journal boasts 15 sheets of rich, cold press, 140 lb watercolor paper
- Superior Strength - A cylinder mold process distributes cotton fibers evenly to provide exceptional resistance to scratching and erasing without tearing or linting; it allows our cold pressed watercolor paper to slacken uniformly when wet for outstanding control
- Plein Air Painting - Experience true creative convenience with our new travel watercolor sketchbook that allows you to sharpen your painting skills anywhere. The pulp-dyed backboard provides extra rigidity for stable painting on location
- Exclusive Gelatin Sizing "to the Core" - Arches water color paper is the only art paper in the world to be gelatin sized "to the core"; this increases the luster and transparency of colors while preventing paints from penetrating into the paper and makes blending, overlay or paint removal easy, wet or dry
- Premium Art Papers Since 1492 - After five centuries, the Arches philosophy remains the same: to make the best papers and enable you to produce your finest works while guaranteeing they will last as long as our papermaking heritage
