Paper is arguably the MOST important part of your watercolor materials!
And these days, choosing the right paper can be a tricky operation, especially for beginners. There’s a huge range of finishes, thicknesses, formats and brands! I created this guide to share with you the benefit of my experience with different types of paper. And to help you choose the right stuff !

Hello! I'm Anthony. An independent artist and illustrator based near Paris in France. Watercolor painting was my first passion. So a few years ago I took out my old paints, and rekindled my love for watercolors. I decided to start sharing some of my watercolor experiences in the form of my blog, “WatercolorAffair.com” (and now through my CZcams channel). My objective was to start sharing some of my hard won knowledge in the hope that it will help and inspire others to paint with watercolors! Thank you for following !

I so appreciate these videos. Thank you so much for sharing. I have learned so much! I live in Nebraska, USA. 😊

Have you tried Baohong? It's up there with Arches and Fab. Artistico.

[@WatercolorAffair]

Hi Paula - I've heard good things about it, but haven't tried it yet. I know it's reasonably priced in the US, but it's a bit trickier to get hold of in my part of the world (France). It's on my "to do" list 🙂

[@PaulaBean]

@@WatercolorAffair I'm in the Netherlands. My local art shop carries the Baohong paper, it's called 'The Masters' Choice' - a rather pretentious name, if you'd ask me.

Anthony! If you put gesso with a foam roller on cheap board paper, can you paint on it? How will it respond?

I've turned up volume on everything on m computer but the volume on this is very hard (low) to listen to -
