Watercolor Album Masterart R101 375×550 mm 15 sheets 200 g/m²

Masterart Watercolor Album R101 375×550 mm 15 sheets 200 g/m² is a pad designed for watercolor painting that provides a portable and stable surface for practice and finished work. The 375×550 mm format and 15 sheets of 200 g/m² paper are intended for washes, layering and detailed brushwork while limiting paper buckling. The album binding keeps pages together for studio use, classes or plein air sessions and includes heavyweight sheets suitable for a range of water-based media.

Advantages

The heavyweight 200 g/m² paper reduces cockling and supports multiple light washes without rapid deterioration of the paper surface. The 375×550 mm sheet size offers ample working area for medium-format compositions while remaining portable. The album construction secures sheets in sequence, simplifying storage and transport. The paper surface texture balances absorbency and tooth to allow both smooth washes and finer detail work with brushes or pens.

Suitable for

• Watercolor washes and layered painting

• Study sketches, plein air painting and class exercises

How to use

Work on one sheet at a time or keep the album intact for series work.

Use brushes, sponges or pens appropriate for watercolor; for ink or pen details, wait until the underlying wash is thoroughly dry. Store the album flat or upright in a dry area to preserve sheet condition.

Usage recommendations

For best results with the Masterart Watercolor Album R101 375×550 mm 15 sheets 200 g/m², test your chosen pigments and techniques on a corner sheet to check absorbency and color behavior, and allow sufficient drying time between layers to avoid surface damage.
