There are a great deal of watercolor paper manufacturers. To further compound selecting paper, each manufacturer also puts out a great variety of watercolor paper. So how do you choose?
Rule of thumb for beginning W/C paper selection:
- Skip the student grade and select a mid-price of the professional grade w/c papers.

- If you can- purchase a tablet containing a sampling of a manufacturers w/c paper
