Saunders Waterford is the highest quality watercolour paper offered to artists by St Cuthberts Mill. Mouldmade using 100% cotton and endorsed by the Royal Watercolour Society of England, this is a paper of pure luxury. A new addition to the Saunders family is the High White colour which complements the original range of 'White' papers with a new whiter shade that's much brighter. A whiter sheet will make finished paintings more contemporary looking, as artists have commented that they felt the original white colour created a more antique look to their finished compositions.Rough - If you want to do a landscape or seascape, a rough paper with a surface full of natural peaks and valleys will complement the image beautifully, giving it depth and feeling. Cold Press - A surface in between 'Rough' and 'HP' is the most versatile and can be used for many different types of painting. Hot Press - The smooth surface makes it perfectly suited for delicate brushwork and illustration. The surface sizing eliminates pen marks from feathering making it also suited for calligraphy.
