Canson XL Series Watercolor Textured Paper Pad for Paint, Pencil, Ink, Charcoal, Pastel, and Acrylic, Fold Over, 140 Pound, 9x12 Inch, , 30 Sheets

Its pretty good paper. It doesnt buckle unless a lot of water is used, and watercolors show up nicely on it. I dont think it would be something for someone looking to paint on the go, though, since the pages tear out very, very easily. its a good price for the amount and quality, and I think its really good for people who want the best bang for their buck.

This is my first time using water color in about 6 years and it works great for me!

My daughter needed this for art class. Its a decent sketch book. Good for students.

Pages were not glued at the top very well... other than that its great

This is great paper!!! I’ve tried other brands and was honestly never 100% happy with any of them, so I’d just use them as “practice” or “warm up” paper. I am so happy I purchased this one. Loved it so much I’m about to buy more :D love painting in watercolor :D

I bought this to watercolor like crazy, experiment, and learn to improve my watercolors. The paper is perfect for watercolor, even if you get it way too wet it still doesnt bleed, but its not perfect. The pages tend to peal away easily from the rest, and its kinda frustrating for people like me who want to keep it all in the same book. The pages are durable, so as long as you dont purposely try to rip the pages or cut them with scissors they will be fine when they peal out of the book (sorry if this doesnt make much sense). Other than that its perfect for anyone who just wants to experiment, and wonderful price for the quality.

Very good quality. Have bought more than once.

I first got this paper to start watercolor. I never done it before so I did not want to spend more. It is not super bad or super great, but good enough. You get alot of the price compared to other brands out there for sure. I also use this with my 0.5 mechanical pencil to draw and it does an amazing job. If you use only watercolor, it will curl up quite a bit. Will not work if you want to put on many layers. If you use graphite/pencil, it blends really well, I have been using it for my drawing/sketching (both in color lead and normal lead) I also used it for ink and a bit of watercolor. This way it barely curl at all. All in all, great for many medium and amazing price for what you get.

I use this for my practice art. It doesnt spread as well as like thier Arches, but is cheaper and really good for practice. Ill keep on buying.

Received the pad with the bulk of the pages separated and a couple sheets loose. Also, I ordered it because it was advertised as a two pack but I only received one.
