This Cold pressed paper is popular for precise styles of watercolor work because it’s good at showing a high level of brush detail.
This paper is also well adapted to styles that want to accentuate the watery irregularities of the paint and for combining pen and ink with watercolor.
This makes the paper good for glazing (successive layers of dried paint) although when there are many layers of paint the surface can get overloaded quickly.
