No watercolor artist should ever compromise their artwork with a sheet that won’t last. That is why Winsor & Newton created Cotman Watercolor paper. It’s for artists on limited budgets. It is a good alternative to 100% rag papers primarily because it is mouldmade. Its handsome cold pressed surface and 140 lb. weight make it perfect for most techniques. Cotman is an acid-free sheet internally and externally sized to allow for repeated reworking without damage to the surface.
