The Italian artist paper by KREUL was selected because it suited the color systems. From drawing paper for sketches through to paper for painting with watercolor, oil and acrylic paints, and using mixed media techniques, artists can choose the suitable painting medium depending on quality. The use of FSC™ certified cellulose pulp (FSC™ Mix) and production with hydropower make this product highly eco-friendly. KREUL Paper Water Color is ideal for watercolour and gouache. Blocks are glued on four sides to prevent the paper from warping when wet. Available in cold pressed surface. The internal and external sizing make its water absorption optimally balanced. The water color paper is made of a mix of cotton (25%) and lignin free cellulose. This high quality paper is perfect for art students and beginners.
