Arches Hot Press Watercolour Paper is widely regarded as one of the finest watercolour papers available. Crafted from 100% long cotton fibre. It boasts a unique combination of natural beauty, strength and durability. This composition gives the paper its pristine, lasting whiteness and a distinctive tactile quality that artists appreciate. The paper’s robust structure ensures longevity. Allowing it to withstand various techniques like ink, gouache, acrylic and of course, watercolour.
One of the standout features of Arches Hot Press is its exclusive sizing process. Natural gelatin sizes the paper to the core. This sizing allows for an exceptional level of resilience. Artists can scratch or manipulate the surface without the risk of tearing or linting.
The paper also maintains the transparency and luster of watercolours, preventing the paint from soaking too deeply into the fibers. Even after prolonged soaking, it retains enough gelatin to avoid becoming overly absorbent, ensuring a consistent surface.
Measuring 56cm x 76cm with a weight of 300gsm. This high-quality paper is perfect for serious watercolour artists who demand both beauty and functionality in their materials. Whether you’re working with delicate washes or bold strokes, Arches Hot Press provides a smooth, versatile surface for all your creative needs.
