Canson Montval Watercolor Pad, CP, 300 g, 12 Sheets, A3, Glued
Canson Montval is a glued A3 watercolor pad with a weight (g/m²) of 300 g/m² and a fine-grain surface (cold press), intended for students and advanced watercolor artists. The paper is made from 100% cellulose on a cylinder mold (mold-made), is acid-free, and its double-sided sizing keeps paint on the surface, giving you more time to work with a wet layer. The sides are glued to keep the paper stretched while you paint, with minimal buckling when wet.
