The 2mm greyboard backing gives the pad rigidity so you can work without a drawing board. Available in A5, A4, and A3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe paper is acid and chlorine-free, sized for additional wet strength, and white throughout.

For very heavy saturation techniques, you may want to use a block or stretch sheets, but for day-to-day painting this pad is ready to use as is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does Seawhite compare to Bockingford or Arches?\u003c\/strong\u003e Seawhite is a quality wood pulp paper — honest, reliable, and very good value. Bockingford is also wood pulp but with a slightly more refined sizing and surface that many watercolourists prefer. Arches and Saunders Waterford are 100% cotton and in a different league for professional finished work. Seawhite is ideal for regular practice, class work, and building your skills before stepping up to more premium papers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Seawhite","offers":[{"title":"A5","offer_id":42547921223927,"sku":"PADWC5","price":5.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A4","offer_id":31702980689972,"sku":"PADWC4","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3","offer_id":31702980722740,"sku":"PADWC3","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0076\/2288\/5428\/products\/dbc5c71d-5581-4be5-9734-a9d700c8ad2b_1000x1000_aa0d4766-5cb4-4875-bad5-751a741474a3.jpg?v=1769676720","url":"https:\/\/craftandcanvas.live\/products\/seawhite-a4-watercolour-pad","provider":"Craft and Canvas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
