Watercolor Pads


Looking for the perfect pad for your next watercolor project? At Blick, you’ll find the widest selection of watercolor pads from all your favorite brands! Explore cold press watercolor pads and hot press watercolor pads for beginners and students, as well as artist-grade pads featuring professional-quality, archival watercolor papers made to last a lifetime.


Great for travel, urban sketching, or plein air, watercolor pads come in a wide range of sizes and formats to suit your unique needs and goals. Choose from spiral pads or fold-over (also known as glue-bound) pads containing rough, hot press, cold press, and soft press watercolor paper in a variety of popular weights. We also offer specialty pads with synthetic paper, papers in unique shapes and colors, and pads featuring black or toned paper.


What is the difference between watercolor pads and watercolor blocks?

Watercolor pads and watercolor blocks both contain numerous sheets of watercolor paper. The main difference is that watercolor pads contain loose sheets bound with glue or a wire spiral at one end, while blocks are glued on all four sides. Pads are useful for travel, classroom settings, and other situations where painting on a block would be impractical. Blocks offer convenience because sheets remain perfectly flat throughout the painting and drying process.
