Pigment behaves differently on paper that can hold it, and the difference between a sheet that buckles and bleeds and one that stays true under a loaded brush is the difference between a practice and a pleasure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Printworks Aquarelle Paper Pad \u003c\/em\u003eis built around that understanding.

It fits comfortably on a desk or a lap, travels well, and keeps your work consistent in scale - useful if you are building a series or working alongside other A4 reference materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe paper itself carries FSC certification, which means the fibre used in production comes from responsibly managed forests. It is ivory white rather than stark white, a tone that is easier on the eye during long sessions and gives watercolour washes a slightly warmer ground to settle into.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad dimensions are 30 x 21cm with a spine depth of 0.8cm, and the total weight of the pad is 300g, keeping it light enough to include in a travel kit or art bag without a second thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is not a pad for the drawer\u003c\/strong\u003e.
