The Arches Spiral Bound Travel Book is a premium watercolour pad made with 100% cotton, mould-made paper. Featuring a smooth hot pressed surface, it is ideal for detailed watercolour, ink, and mixed media.
The paper is mould-made, 100% cotton, gelatine tub-sized and with a neutral pH. The surface is hard-sized and less textured, so the paint stays on the surface rather than soaking in. The compact, spiral-bound format makes it perfect for artists working on the move, offering a premium working surface in a portable design.
The beauty and quality of Arches watercolour papers make them suitable for gouache, acrylics, oil and ink as well. For more than five centuries, artists around the world have depended upon Arches for optimum quality papers, worthy of their finest work. Its whiteness is natural, obtained without optical brighteners. Sizing is important to watercolour paper - it helps the paper accept washes, scratching and erasing without affecting the actual fibres and strength of the paper. Made in France since 1492.
