Comments about Strathmore 400 Series Watercolor Blocks:

I've used Strathmore watercolor blocks (9x12, 11x15, 15x20) for my watercolor and gouache paintings for ages and have never had an issue. The surface holds up well to multiple washes and I've never found it to "pill" with a reasonable amout of scrubbing to remove/reduce errors. Pencil lines erase well. More importantly, I've never had the surface "resist" a wash in spots as I've had occur when experimenting with another brand of paper that begins with the letter C. As an aside, I've also had terrific results with Strathmore 400 Printmaking paper.

Not great, not bad.

I have never used a watercolor block before purchasing this product. It is great not having to tape down your paper to prevent warping. This makes it so much easier to paint anywhere. You just pack up your tray of paint, brushes, some water, block of paper... and go! The only thing I had a little trouble with is removing a sheet from the block when I have finished painting. I fear I may damage the edge. A dull butter knife does the trick nicely.

Strathmore watercolor papers are always good quality and reliable as a surface for the intended purpose. Strathmore 400 watercolor paper has been my favorite watercolor painting surface since I first used them many years ago as a student in my university watercolor classes. Strathmore papers are absolutely the best quality availbable for the price. I enjoy the way the colors perform when I brush them on the paper when I am using Strathmore.

I ordered the block of Strathmore to use for watercolor practice purposes. No taping down and no clamping required. It is a good value and saves me from using the more expensive paper. Good stuff.

I use this when teaching all ages. You should see the delight of little ones when their painting doesn't puddle up and run together. The great results is a real confidence builder with young artists.
No more time spent in stretching paper! Personally it is nice to know when I get a spontaneous chance to paint the supplies are all set to grab and go.
