Have you ever wanted to try a different watercolor paper but did not want to commit to buying an entire pad or block of it up front? Me too. I could not find a watercolor paper sample pack, so I created one with different papers for my fellow artists to play with! With this Watercolor Paper Sample Pack, you can now try 13 different papers, compare all the textures and colors, swatch and paint on each, and find the right one to fit your unique style and process.
Each paper will come with a removable label on the back to identify paper, texture, weight, country, and sizing information for you.
All papers included in the Watercolor Paper Sample Pack are of the highest quality and will always be 100% cotton, acid free, and at least 140 lbs / 300 gsm. Sample sizes are in inches and are approximate due to hand trimming, removal of residual glue from edges of a block, etc.
NOTE: New, updated paper packs are here! Some papers that are shown in photos have been replaced. The updated paper list is accurately reflected in the table below.
