Just a clear massage without too much talking about nothing. Thank you sir for your engagement. One of the best information about watercolor on the internet.
He's also one of the best watercolor artists out there!! He's a master of this medium. That's the good part about RUclips, you can find a lot of crap, but in the same time, a ton of valuable information, on any subject!!
As a full time professional artist and Bookbinder, my absolute favorite paper is Saunders Waterford. I make my own line of luxury Hardbound goatskin leather watercolor sketchbooks with all of the choices of the professional artist grade 100% cotton papers. I buy most of my paper in rolls when available, and bulk imperial sheet orders if rolls aren't available. It's hard to find the rolls of Saunders Waterford in America too. I actually buy my Saunders Waterford rolls from a bookbinding company named " Talas ". They carry Saunders complete range of papers, in rolls and Imperial sheets. The Arches rolls come in 45" x 10 yards and are much cheaper than the Saunders rolls. Since I use Saunders from my Artwork, and for Binding... I buy alot lol. The Saunders rolls are twice the price of Arches, but their rolls are MUCH larger! The Saunders rolls are 68" wide and 11 yards long... plus they usually have a extra foot or 2 after the 11 yards, so some rolls are close to 12 yards long! Saunders rolls are also packaged much better, the box it comes in is Cleary marked " acid free cardboard " and the roll is completely wrapped in a static free polyethylene uncoated plastic. Arches rolls are in a box, but I can't find anywhere that their box is acid free like Saunders is, and the rolls just sit bare inside the box. I do like Arches, but they always have sizing issues... some spots are overly sized and you get these white dots that show up all over the place, after your paint has dried. I like Fabriano's soft press and their handmade series of papers ( very exspensive )... but I don't like their other papers. All in all, Saunders is a far superior paper in every way! And I see people that have been raving about Winsor and Newton watercolor paper, up until recently. That's because Saunders Waterford's mill was making Winsor and Newton's paper, but have recently stopped... so Winsor and Newton's paper has completely changed over night, that because Saunders isn't making it anymore... its a different mill that makes their paper now. alot of people are very dissatisfied by this sudden change, because its completely different now. Buy Saunders Waterford paper, if you loved the old winsor paper. Saunders Waterford also makes amazing paper for Printmaking. I hand marble my own paper for end pages and wrapping things. If any of you have never tried Saunders Waterford, because it is more exspensive, or because it's less talked about... iam telling you, try it out and you will fall in love with it. Saunders is the best Watercolor paper, by leaps and bounds over Arches and Fabriano. Rolls are far much cheaper than those pads and blocks, pads and blocks are a complete rip-off. Hope you have a good one
I have been painting for many years (on and off), after taking a workshop with the famed American watercolorist Tony Couch. Your explanation of the paper is the best I have ever heard. Even though I knew about weights, finishes and sizes, your honest review of brands was very helpful. This is the first time I heard about Fabriano using more glue, and some brands of the same weight not staying wet as long because of this. Thanks ever so much for sharing your talents with the world. You are an excellent example of how one person can make a positive difference to the lives of so many.
Mille mercis, professeur 🙏 cette vidéo est magistrale 👍 Elle apporte des réponses à toutes les questions que je me suis toujours posées et même plus encore. Je ne peux plus rater aucun détail de vos cours. Encore une fois, merci

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CONTENT ON PROFESSIONAL WATERCOLOR PAPERS & EXPLAINATION OF THE DIFFERENT & UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS OF EACH. THANK YOU SO MUCH I LEARNED A LOT ABOUT QUALITY PAPERS! 100% EXCELLENT VIDEO! BRAVO!
Все очень конкретно, без воды, с примерами! Спасибо, что делитесь своим опытом и предпочтениями! Много нового почерпнул для себя! Еще раз большое спасибо! 🎉🎉🎉
Спасибо большое за такое хорошее видео. Это самое лучшее видео о бумаге, все подробно и с разъяснениями. Сегодня как раз тестировала всю бумагу, что есть дома. И заметила, что мои фавориты как раз Сандерс и Арчес. После просмотра видео поняла, что я правильно заметила в своих сравнениях. Moulin du Roy не понравился вообще, а сколько слышала хороших отзывов об этой бумаге. Я часто использую ещё и фабриано и довольна тоже, но быстровато сохнет, как Вы и сказали. Рисую всего один год, а столько всего интересного узнала. Спасибо Вам большое, что снимаете такие видео. Вы очень мотивируете и вдохновляете
Merci pour toutes ces informations sur le papier. Je débute à l'aquarelle et je ne comprenais pas pourquoi j'arrivais à faire certaines choses avec un papier et je n'y arrivais pas avec un autre. J'ai appris beaucoup et je vais mettre en application tous ces bons conseils.
Огромадная Благодарность Вам Михаил! За все время моего кропотливого изучения вхождения в акварельную живопись, я такую подробную, ценную информацию всего в одном уроке, не слышал ни от какого художника. Я уверен, что после прослушания пару таких Ваших уроков, я смело могу назвать себя академиком живописи, только надо будет еще и практику определенную пройдти. Я сохранил в закладку это силно понравившееся видео и буду, возможно, еще не раз возвращаться к нему. А сейчас спешу просматривать вторую часть. Спасибо что Вы есть!
Now I know why my colors are too weak, why it seems to dry so quickly, etc, etc. All the problems you mentioned, I went through them all and now I know why! Thank you for this 😃👍
Oh Wow!!! Many, many thanks for your knowledge, and experienced wisdom. I started watercolors many years ago, but moved to photography profession forgetting about the power of watercolor. And now after pandemic I started once again to love it and was looking for good quality education on this artistry. Back in time, I used to join a local watercolor association of artists and remembered the importance of using the best water color paper and many artists the invited to share their technique. What a treat! I've always used Arches paper but now, looking forward to try the Waterford. I also want to say that knowing you did a Masters, and kept searching to understand the medium and what works for you, made my journey more ease to understand issues I was having with the paper, after returning to practice on the medium. Truly Grateful for your mastership, You are a true master!!!
Very Very useful video. Especially for artists like me. Thank you so much for expressing your valuable experience, that too for free? This shows that you are such a nice human being. Definitely a lot of people around the world would be benefited by this and videos like this. I wish you all the best for all your future ventures. And Let the Almighty bless you with good health and happiness through out your life.
😃🤣🤣🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻…you are a great instructor as I see!…great, plain and valuable information…very good humor…a pleasure to hear your explanations filled with pasion for the watercolor world !!…👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻…congratulations and thank you very much, a fan of your art from Bolivia (living in Brazil now, where you have many fans of your art also!).
A very good explanation! Now I understand why I've been lost in my first steps in watercolor. Thanks a lot for all those accurates details and advices!
Hallo Michael... ein wirklich sehr lehrreiches Video. Konnte sehr viel über gutes Papier erfahren. Gratulation. Ich verfolge auch weiterhin deine Beiträge. Grüße aus Österreich
Merci! Merci! Merci! This video answered my "Why's" superbly. It all makes more sense now. I'm only about 2 months into my watercolour journey. Now I want to drop my inferior paper, and get the better papers.
OMG Michael! This has been the most valuable information on watercolor paper and why that I have ever seen or heard!!! Thank you so very much and I wish you continued success in your work of creating beautiful Art!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I learned a lot today about paper. I will stop asking myself why is everything going wrong with my painting today ?Whished I had known all these information before. I saw you painting Roberto in Rochemaure, with the difficulties of the weather and it was really fantastic.
Estoy encantada con tus vídeos ; me tienes maravillada ; mi problema es no entiendo casi nada ….. y como lo siento .Podrias traducirlos ; te seguiríamos mas . Gracias por tus manos
This is the BEST lesson about wc paper I have ever had...! a TOP lesson! Thank you so much for such valuable explanation Michael! Will be looking for the #2 lesson. Stay well!
Ive used Arches and Baohong paper, but I havent had the chance to use Saunders, which is very difficult to get in the US (2024). Arches is a bit beyond my budget but I love it. Baohong has been very impressive as well. But I look trying all the good stuff before settling on a 'go to' art supply.
@@watercoloronlinemsolovyev I got the Saunders paper in the mail and tried it. This may be my all time favorite paper now. The pigments are much more predictable on this paper. Thanks for the reference.
The best explanation ever!!! Thank you so much Michael! I have found your channel recently and can’t stop watching it:) your style is very beautiful, just the perfect amount of loose and details, breathing, spontaneous, very inspiring! A pleasure to eyes! Your advice is golden, thank you! I also hope to find your store in Europe, otherwise shipping costs make it almost impossible to order:(( which I would totally want to do. And a little comment about the paper support. I have cardboard/plywood frames/support from my student time:), but I wrap them with kitchen plastic foil. This gives me some extra time because my paper stays a bit longer wet. Best and friendly regards to you! Спасибо Вам, Маэстро!
I would have been more spoken but it was three am in the morning. I enjoy all your videos. I am going to get some Saunders paper today as I have not ever used any. Appreciate all you do for us.
This is the best informational tutorial on paper I have ever seen. I've experimented with most of the papers Michael reviewed. I now understand paper so much better. Interesting point....I tried Moulin du Roy paper and would get single sheets at Hobby Lobby when they stocked it. I loved the paper but I think it was before Canson took over making it and is not readily available. I haven't used it for 2 years and went to the Saunders, Arches and Fabriano Soft Press. I also like Lanaquarelle. Thank you so much! Looking forward to the next one on brushes.
Thanks so much Paula! I am glad that the paper connoisseur like yourself still found this tutorial useful! I love trying out new paper so much. Yeah, Canson is not the best watercolor paper producer, I'd put it that way :)
