A paper with an beautiful, distinct grain that isn't too grid-like. Colour is very warm, almost off-white. Does everything you need a watercolour paper to do; allows for wet-on-wet and lifting; doesn't buckle very much even when removed from the block; pencil lines can be rubbed out without degrading the sizing; does not tear when masking tape and fluids are used. A great workhorse paper at an attractive price point.
