"What is the best watercolor paper to use?" is a question I get asked a lot. So rather than just listing out my favorites, I made a short video showing you the differences between hot pressed and cold pressed, the different brands of watercolor paper, and which one you should choose depending on whether you're a beginner or a watercolor pro. Check it out, and let me know if you have any other art questions - I'd be happy to answer them if I can. 

Top of my list is: 

• Arches Hot Pressed Watercolor Block (a little more expensive but great for scanning)
• Fluid Hot Pressed Watercolor Block (less expensive than Arches so great for beginners and trying out new things)
