The Ultimate Watercolor Paper Comparison | Comparing 24 Types of Watercolor Paper (Part 1)

Today we are finally taking a look at watercolor paper! Twenty four watercolor papers to be exact. Join me as we take a look as we put them through the tests of a wet on wet, diluted wash, concentrated wash, dry on dry, and a super speedy mini landscape to see how they perform.

Please note that this video is not intended for absolute beginners. I will do a “prequel” episode that will explain the fundamental differences between rough, hot, cold pressed papers as well as cotton vs wood pulp. I will link that here when it’s ready, but in the meantime, YouTube is full of videos like this one that I’m sure you can find pretty easily.

I also want to say that I’m sorry for spacing out on a lifting test! It was my intention to do so, but I was trying to get this done under a deadline and simply forgot. I will do a separate video for this as well, using the same swatches you see here, and post the link here when that is ready as well.
