Canson Cold Press Heritage, White

100% watercolor paper with beautiful texture can’t wait to create beautiful paintings with this set. So excited!

Es uno de mis blocks favoritos, anteriormente compraba el arches pero subio de precio y este se le asemeja muchisimo, ojo no es un papel de acuarela que te deje trabajar por mucho tiempo con el agua como el xl, al momento de aplicar acuarela tienes que irlas trabajando algo rapido o echarle agua constantemente, pero cuando se seca deja todo super difuminado, a pesar de que a veces dejo que se seque una capa y pongo otra arriba, todo queda perfectamente unido, a diferencia del xl donde no se difumina tambien el color cuando lo pones sobre seco (queda como plasta) este es de mis blocks favoritos ya que me permite tener mas control del area, el tono de la hoja es blanco limpio, no se ve beige, ni amarillento.

Excelente calidad de papel, me encanta, aguanta muy bien multiples aguadas sin maltratarse ni doblarse. Totalmente recomendable 💯

Like this Canson paper a good bit. Other Canson papers have be just ho-hum for me. I first used Heritage in full-sheet form. I saw this pad and decided to give a go. I think for many watercolorist, Arches is almost the canonical paper by which all other papers are judged. If comparing the two, I would have to say that Heritage Rough is less "rough" than Arches cold press in my opinion, but keep in mind your milage may vary. It absorbs loads of water and takes paint well. I haven't attempted much scrubbing as the paper has a softer feel in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, I love the feel of this paper, it just different. I have used it to paint a variety of finished pieces and would recommend this paper and would it buy again.

This is a very nice 100% cotton watercolor paper. I got it to try because even though I use Arches watercolor paper a lot, I have generally liked the sketchbooks and paper I've used from Canson in the past, so I was curious to try their cotton paper. I'm not an expert when it comes to spotting the small differences between the two, but I found them very similar in quality and have a hard time telling the difference between the two brandsIt's not exactly cheaper than Arches (at least not on Amazon at the moment), so I can't say it's better for beginners and practice, but it's another great option to have. I'd be satisfied using either, to be honest. Canson's rough textured (Heritage) paper is also very nice, too!

Holds water very well. Excellent for watercolour applications.
