Arches - my absolute favourite paper to work with.
300gsm rough (cold press), 10 yard roll, two deckle edges.
Used over a yard today.
No other part of the process has the same sense of anticipation as cutting and preparing from Arches rolls.
This is it. Make it good.
After being rolled up, the paper is tense. Coating with cyanotype, the gentle brush strokes help it relax.

Water colours on budget acid-free watercolour paper
Bought a pad of #budget #watercolours paper from #SΓΈstreneGrene yesterday, so tonight I wanted to try it out.
It's 20 sheets of #A5 230 grams acid-free paper, with a 100% #FSC (#ForestStewardshipCouncil) label, so I'm guessing this is wood paper, and not cotton, but at 32,90 NOK (2,80 EUR / 2,86 GBP) I guess that was to be expected. It has a nice texture to it; not too strong, but just enough.
Didn't curl much while on the pad, though now that the individual sheets are drying on the desk, the wettest one has some curling at the top and bottom; might want to leave it on the pad for longer, or use paper clamps.Water and colour perhaps didn't spread as evenly as I'd liked, but that could also still be my lacking skills.
All in all, I'm quite satisfied with the results, and thus the paper; at least at its price while I'm still experimenting. Means I can keep the higher quality paper for when I'm more seasoned.
