UCreate Watercolor Paper, Bulk, 140 Lb., White, 9" x 12", 50 Sheets

This watercolor paper is a fantastic choice for students, artists, and hobbyists alike, offering durability and versatility for a range of creative projects. The paper is excellent for watercolor painting, sketching, and creating sample artwork. Its texture holds colors beautifully, preventing over-absorption and allowing pigments to float for a vibrant finish. Whether you're making watercolor cards, sketchbooks, or testing brushes and paints, this paper delivers consistently great results. With 60 sheets per pad, it’s a great value, giving you the freedom to experiment without hesitation. The off-white tone might raise an eyebrow initially, but it doesn’t interfere with the painting process. The surface is forgiving, enabling techniques like color lifting, though a gentle touch is recommended to avoid pilling. The size is slightly unconventional, but with simple adjustments, like framing or matting, it works seamlessly for finished pieces. The paper's durability stands out, with minimal wrinkling under water-heavy techniques. It even adapts well to other mediums, including acrylics, especially when prepped with gesso. The ease of tearing sheets and the wrinkle-free packaging make it convenient and enjoyable to use. Whether you’re a beginner exploring watercolors or an experienced artist creating framed masterpieces, this paper balances quality and affordability perfectly. Highly recommended for all your artistic needs!

This worked out great for elementary students TK through 5. Nice weight. I will order again.

These pages have been amazing for cards due to the strength and nice to the touch feel.

I’m not an artist, but… Like this paper a lot Great for squeegee painting I like the separate sheets (not bound together like a book)

Not the best of watercolor paper but good for light water projects. Good for ink work and light water.

Amazing and thick paper! I use watery colors so when you use normal colors it goes through the paper. So it was amazing to find paper that works! And amazing paper for the cheap price. Easy to use and everything. Comes with a lot of paper for the price. It has been at least 5 months and still hasn’t ran out of water color! Amazing product recommendation for beginners and masters. Works with any paint!

Perfect for gel printing. Affordable and good quality paper.

Great with my expensive watercolor set I don’t know if it is the cheaper paint that might cause problems for others but mine works great! When I put water on it started getting bumpy and wrinkly (like all the stupid watercolor paper) so I was hesitant but it dryed beautifully, started to scratch off a little if I rubbed the paintbrush to much in an area but only when soaking wet and typically you wouldn’t rub in professional watercolor so great for pros

I am getting back into the watercolor painting hobby (possibly as a paid artist, but that's TBD). From everything I've read, the two biggest things that make a big difference in the quality of your work are good paints and good paper. I had ordered a good paint set from Amazon along with this order and decided on this reasonably-priced paper block. At fifteen dollars for fifty sheets, it worked out to about thirty cents per page -- great for practice work. I'm not sure if this is hot-pressed or cold-pressed, but the paper feels fairly smooth, not bumpy or rough, so I'm going to guess it's hot-pressed. Still, it's quite good quality. The paper is thick, almost as thick as cardstock. Paints dry within about ten minutes, with plenty of time to do color blending with watercolor. There is a little bit of warping after drying, but nowhere near as much as you would see with cheaper, lighter paper. For beginners and students, this is more than good enough. I'm very happy with the results I'm seeing so far. Highly recommended!

Loved it good for elementary students

Maybe I should have read the listing properly. I thought this was a book, not just a stack of loose paper. Regardless though, it holds up well

We use this paper in our school. It’s a good standard watercolour paper. Thick enough and has enough texture.

I got thhese papers to start learning to paint with water colours. Today was my first try and first time using them. They worked perfectly, beautifully thick and the water I added to the page did not damage them in any way These work perfectly for water colours paintings in my experience I was a bit surprised at first when I realized these are loose sheets of paper, not a book. But in the end I think that's for the best. Keeps the pages nicer and I can store any paintings I wanted to keep in folders
