Fabriano Artistico watercolour paper is mould made, produced with 100% cotton, chlorine and acid free, guaranteeing long conservation and inalterability over time. The paper is sized both internally and externally, making it ideally absorbent and retaining its nature unaltered even if scratched. Traditional white, without optical bleaching.
Two deckle edged and watermarked "FABRIANO+ARTISTICO" on the short side. Short grain. The high quality and ample offer of this paper satisfied the requirements of all professional artists and the most demanding amateurs.
Ideal for watercolour, tempera, gouche, acrylic, link, charcoal, graphite and drawing. It is also suitable for printmaking.

Finally somewhere that sells Fabriano Artistico HP in the UK! Love this paper. Cracks when folded dry, but run a damp brush along the line before folding and it's superb for bookmaking. Barely wrinkles. Love it. Klair Scattergood (Newcastle Under Lyme, United Kingdom) on 20 May 2012
Since using Fabriano Artistico Rough 300lb, my work has dramatically changed. My landscapes are more free. I love the quality of this heavyweight paper, the way the paint and water soak into it. I love the changes that take place over a day or so whilst the painting dries - so the unpredictability has become part of the process. E N Madder (Huntingdon, United Kingdom) on 11 Jul 2013
This paper is provides a wonderful surface for watercolour painting as it does not buckle even when very wet. Susie Dove (Bury St Edmunds, United Kingdom) on 21 Aug 2013
