I ordered several Strathmore Watercolor Pads and I am very happy with the quality. I am a beginner but I have used different types of paper and this is best one so far.

My order arrived quickly and well packaged. The products are well priced and I am delighted with both the service and products.

Paper quality is great, unfortunately I purchased the 9x12" spiral bound pads -- for a project where I needed 9x12" sheets. The spiral binding robs 1/4" off of the paper --- not a huge deal ordinarily, but it was a problem for the project I was working on. I found the Strathmore 300 series in the 9x12 tape bound pad to be of equal quality for the work I was doing and much easier to work with.

I love these blocks. I have four of them, so I can do a lot of practice paintings...sure, I throw them away later....but maybe some day I won't.

Good paper works very well. My favorite or those I've tried.

I love a good cold press block pad, and this is just perfect for tossing in the car, or backpack, and taking along. The four secured sides eliminate the need to stretch the paper, and it is kept taut and doesn't curl up. The surface is very good to work on, and takes reworking techniques with ease. Great value!!!!

Good quality paper.

I have in the past wasted so much time running around looking for this product at a reasonable price. Then I found it at MisterArt for less than I have found it anywhere else, even including shipping. Thank you

Great paper, Great results, Great price.

Perfect for the paintings I do.

Rated by: Miriam F. in Lakewood, NJ

The convenience of a watercolor block is multiplied by the number of students I teach in my art classes. Imagine if I had to start taping, stapling etc.! The only complaint I have, that it does not completely get rid of all buckling of the paper. Otherwise, it's great!

Rated by: Kim N. in Coupeville, WA

I am in LOVE with Strathmore's watercolor block! The edges are waxed together so the paper does not ripple - even if you use a lot of water - Just let it dry while still secured in the pad and it'll flatten out most ripples! Then, when dry, just slip a knife under the edges of the painting to free it from the pad. An awesome idea...worth EVERY penny!

The best, my best one !

I have always used the watercolor blocks and I'm glad I can find them through Misterart! The best, though, is how fast ALL my orders are delivered! Each order I've placed with the "slow rate" has arrived within 2 days!

Rated by: Ree Leeds in Brigantine, NJ

I have tried all brand and found this brand to be by far the best. Perfect for the type of mixed media painting I work.
