Brand: Canson

Description:
Canson Héritage Hot Pressed Watercolour Pads combine nearly 500 years of traditional papermaking expertise with advanced modern technology to create a premium watercolor paper designed for professional artists. Made from 100% cotton and mould-made for exceptional durability and texture, this paper offers superior absorbency, strength, and colour performance.

The hot pressed surface provides a smooth texture ideal for fine detailing, precision brushwork, controlled washes, and illustration techniques. An innovative non-animal sizing system allows colours to remain bright and vivid while ensuring even washes without pigment buildup or smudging. The smooth surface supports ultra-sharp brush strokes and excellent colour clarity.

Designed for extended working time, the paper stays saturated longer, allowing artists more flexibility when blending, glazing, and working on large watercolor areas. The durable surface also supports corrections and lifting techniques in both wet and dry conditions without damaging the paper.

Acid-free, mould-resistant, and free from optical brighteners, Canson Héritage paper ensures archival-quality preservation for long-lasting artwork.
