Fabriano Artistico watercolor paper is a high quality, natural warm white paper made without optical brighteners. Mould-made of 100% cotton plus acid- and chlorine-free, Artistico papers are also synthetically sized both internally and externally with no animal by-products. The papers are luxurious yet durable enough to handle lifting and scraping. Suitable for watercolor, charcoal and pastel or printmaking. Features two deckled edges and two cut edges. Available in single sheets and 4-packs! Cold press has a versatile and soft texture that is robust enough to handle lifting and scrubbing. Hot press is the smoothest watercolor paper for precise detail and digital printing. Rough has an extraordinary, rugged texture recalling the finest handmade papers. Soft press is an exclusive surface that lies between cold press and hot press, similar to the finest printmaking paper but with the durability of a strong watercolor paper.
