Soft Kitty Watercolor Sketchpad by Paper Art
My Kid Loves This Sketchpad for Watercolors
summarizeEditor's Summary
I got this sketchpad for my daughter, who's just starting to get into watercolor painting. It's been a hit - the 20 good-quality sheets of paper work great with either acrylic or water-soluble paints. The A5 size is perfect for tossing in her art bag or backpack. I'm really impressed with the paper quality - it's not too soft that it smudges, and it handles even the most intense pencil marks really well. Plus, it doesn't buckle under pressure, so she can get creative without worrying about it warping. I'm super happy with this sketchpad, and I think it's a great choice for anyone just starting out with watercolors.
