I haven't painted in water colours for over 12 years. The paper I was using (cheap stuff from art college) wasn't performing like I wanted it to. I was unsure what to buy for the technique / effect I was trying to achieve. By buying this pack I'm able to play around with the paint, at the moment I'm really liking the HP papers in the pack.

Having just started with watercolour it is difficult to know what paper works best. I started with an ordinary stationary shop brand paper as I was not aware of what else there was out there. The choice of paper is a real challenge to the beginner and so to be able to get a sample pack of top brand papers to try saves on the expense of buying full sheets or pads and getting stuck with paper that doesn't suit. Thank you for labelling all the papers in pencil to make identification easy. Lorraine Heyworth (Chester, United Kingdom) on 13 Sep 2013
This pack is excellent value as it gives the opportunity to experiment with a variety of good quality paper of different types and makes. It would take years for a beginner, for whom the issue can be mystifying, to find, buy and experiment with using such a wide variety of paper. Perfect!
