A pair of premium watercolor paper pads from Maruman’s Vif-Art line, featuring a coarse/rough texture that enhances expressive washes, vibrant pigment layering, and classic watercolor techniques.

Designed for artists who want strong absorbency, dynamic texture, and reliable performance across mediums.

Key Features

• Coarse/rough surface: The textured surface captures pigment beautifully while maintaining strong water control — ideal for bold washes, granulation, and dramatic watercolor effects.

• Excellent water handling: Paper resists excessive buckling and holds multiple layers of pigment and water without compromising surface integrity.

• Versatile for mixed media: Works well with watercolor, gouache, ink, colored pencils, and light pastel, offering flexibility for varied artistic styles.

• Top-bound pad design: Each pad is gummed at the top edge, allowing you to tear out sheets cleanly for framing, scanning, or display.

• Archival quality: 242 g/m² paper weight with neutral (acid-free) composition helps preserve artworks over time.
