Fabriano Artistico Extra White Watercolor Paper - 140 lb. Hot Press, 22" x 30", 1 Sheet

Fabriano Artistico Extra White Watercolor Paper delivers the purest bright white paper available without the use of optical brighteners or bleaches. It's mould-made from 100% cotton, is chorine- and acid-free, and is internally and externally sized with a plant-based synthetic, vegan-friendly sizing. The enhanced quality sizing offers increased surface resistance to handle the toughest scrubbing and scraping, improved color lifting, and consistent texture and absorbency.

Each sheet has two natural deckled edges and two cut edges, with a running watermark. Not just for watercolor, it's suitable for all water media, charcoal and pastel, graphite and other drawing media, printmaking, and even digital printing.

Artistico watercolor paper is manufactured at a world renown historic mill located in the north central region of Italy that dates back to the mid-13th century.

Hot Press - Hot Press paper is the smoothest of watercolor papers, making it ideal for detailed artwork because the surface allows for the most delicate of details. For this reason, it's a favorite with illustrators and botanical artists. It also digitally scans well due to this lack of texture. Hot Press is also recommended for gouache, acrylic, colored pencil, pen and ink, and technical pens.
