The off-white color is achieved with no dyes, bleaches, or optical whiteners. It is archival, acid-free, and chlorine-free, and is tough enough to handle lifting, scraping, and scrubbing. Created for both quality and value, it meets the demands of the most discerning professional artists. As always, you have Joe’s 100% guarantee!

This artists watercolor paper is ideal for watercolor, gouache, ink, acrylics, drawing, and printmaking, and is strong enough to handle multiple washes of color, masking fluid, and artist’s tape without damage to the surface. Available in 140 lb. and 300 lb. weights with a beautiful cold pressed texture. The 140 lb. paintbooks contain 20 sheets each of drawing paper and watercolor paper, and the 300 lb. paintbooks contain 10 sheets of each paper. Each book also features a 300 lb. cover sheet for you to create your own cover.

We’re proud that Kilimanjaro is ecologically sound in its production, using hydroelectricity to generate a savings of 26,000 tons of CO2 emissions and recovering/purifying used water for future productions. It also only uses plant-based materials and synthetic sizings – another notch towards sustainable production processes.

These unique sketchbooks contain sheets of sketch paper interleaved with sheets of watercolor paper. The 70 lb. sketch paper is great for value sketches or taking notes right alongside professional-grade cold-press watercolor paper for more finished studies. They’re spiral bound with a stiff backing board which makes them easy to use whether on your lap while traveling or ‘thinking out loud’ in your studio. They make great travel journal mixed media sketchbooks.
