Do you think Archers 140 lb hot press paper is the same quality in a pad as it is in single sheets?

Hi Sherri
That’s a good point. I’ll try to explore that option in another article 🙂

You might want to mention that there is also non-gelatin sizing. I am a vegetarian and had a really hard time at first trying to find vegan water-color paper (there are quite a few now – Fabriano Artistico is actually one of them).

You mention tracing a drawing. How does one trace through so heavy an opaque material as watercolor paper?

In reply to Tracey. Happy to help Tracey! Guess I’ll have to do the same for brushes some time :-)

Anthony, this is the clearest and most detailed introduction I have found, thank-you. I have been floundering trying to understand the differences – now to move onto brushes – where to start?
