Information
Saunders Waterford Blocks are made and produced with paper from the St Cuthberts mill in Wells, Southern England. The pad contains 20 sheets of Cylinder Mould Made, 100% cotton paper. These sheets have a neutral pH size (internally) which makes them genuinely acid-free. Each page is 300gsm (140lb) which is designed to be used with Watercolours. The paper varies in texture with Rough, Hot and Not press available and all paper is white in colour.
Saunders Waterford Blocks are cut-edge which provides a clean edge to the paper. The cover is paperback, easy to remove and acts more as a basic cover for the paper. The pad is glued on four sides and pages can be easily removed for stretching with a kraft knife. These blocks can also open-flat, is thick and a great accessory if you are interested in trying Watercolour. It is a great work surface for an artist looking to explore higher end materials in their process. These watercolour blocks are available in 9”x12” and 12”x16” sizing.
Watercolour paper is available in three textures. Cold Press or ‘Not’ which has a slight texture, Rough which has a heavily textured and sometimes uneven surface, and Hot press which has a smooth even surface.
We recommend that this pad is perfect for watercolour, wet in wet techniques and works especially well with inks and watercolours. Because it is 300gsm (140lb) it is a fairly heavyweight paper and will take watercolour or any other similar wet technique well and the paper won’t easily buckle. We would suggest any wet medium, however pastels and sketching materials will work also.
