Watercolor Block for Beginners and Professionals

The Paul Rubens Watercolor Block is a high-quality product designed for both beginners and experienced artists. Crafted with premium long-staple cotton, this watercolor paper offers exceptional absorbency, allowing pigments to be better absorbed and reducing the time required for the paint to dry.

Measuring 7.87 x 5.43 inches, the block contains 20 sheets of 140lb/300gsm cold-pressed paper. The paper is sealed on all sides, helping to maintain its flatness and providing resistance to wrinkles and moisture. This unique design also allows the sheets to be easily removed by gently scraping the seal with a card or other thin tool.

Made of 100% cotton pulp, the acid-free paper is designed to endure, ensuring that your artworks will not become yellow and brittle over time. The cold-pressed surface offers a medium texture that holds pigments well, producing softer colors and allowing for a wide range of watercolor techniques and detailed brush work. Both sides of the paper can be utilized, maximizing the usage of this versatile material.

In addition to its practical features, the watercolor block boasts an exquisite design. Each few pages feature beautiful illustrations by renowned watercolor artists, inspiring creativity and adding a touch of elegance to your artistic endeavors. The cover is also beautifully designed, with thicker panels that provide sturdy support for your work.

The watercolor block is glued on all four sides, ensuring that the paper remains flat and wrinkle-free even after absorbing large amounts of water. This feature allows the painting to dry with a smooth, consistent appearance. When you're ready to remove a sheet, simply insert a paint knife, palette knife, or other thin blade into the unglued opening and gently run it around the edge, rotating the block counter-clockwise while moving the blade in the opposite direction. The remaining glue can then be removed from the top sheet using your fingers.

This watercolor paper is well-suited for a variety of dry media, as the thick 140lb (300gsm) stock prevents marker and ink from bleeding through. The acid-free, pH-neutral, and chlorine-free composition ensures that your artwork will remain vibrant and long-lasting, resisting fading over time.

Whether you're a beginner exploring the world of watercolor painting or an experienced artist seeking a high-quality material, the Paul Rubens Watercolor Block is an excellent choice. Its exceptional absorbency, durable construction, and exquisite design make it a versatile and valuable addition to any artist's toolkit. Consider this watercolor block as a thoughtful gift for friends, family, or fellow creatives, and unlock your artistic potential with this premium-quality product.
