Arches Watercolor Paper Roll - 140 lb. Rough, 44-1/2" x 10 yards

Original Arches Natural White Watercolor Paper has been prized by artists since the founding ofﾠArches in 1492. This legendary paper is still made with natural cotton fibers, carefully selected for their absorbency and durability. Arches paper is mould-made on a cylinder-mould machine which ensures that fibers are not closely aligned but are randomly oriented and densely interwoven in all directions. This adds considerable strength to the paper and produces a natural,ﾠattractively textured surface with the look and feel of a vintage handmade paper.

Each roll is acid-free, pH-neutral, gelatin-sized to the core, and air-dried. Two natural deckled edges run the length of the roll. Work as large as you like with the ability to cut your own custom sized sheets to length!

Arches papers are built on the knowledge and experience of yesterday's craftsmen combined with modern innovation, creating important new features and improvements in the paper's performance. If stored and handled properly, they will remain beautiful and vibrant for centuries.

Rough - The rough finish has an effect close to that of handmade paper and encourages a loose style. This rough tooth paper helps to achieve effects of texture and showcases granulating watercolors well. Not just for watercolors, Arches Roughﾠis also recommended for gouache, acrylic, charcoal, andﾠpastel.
