Watercolor PapersYour artwork takes considerable time and talent to produce. Whether it's for your personal enjoyment or to sell to a collector, it makes sense to use the highest quality watercolor paper. Today's highest quality watercolor paper is made on cylinder mound machines, a very slow process which produces an extremely stable sheet, with minimal cockling with the application of a heavy wash, and also a sheet with a random grain pattern which is even on both sides. There are also some high quality watercolor papers made from high-quality alpha cellulose. Legion is proud to have a wide range of these papers available, representing the finest paper mills in the world.

A nice bright versatile white, the Artistico Extra White is available in two weights (140- and 300-lb) and four surfaces (hot, cold, soft, and rough). The new hot and soft presses mimic their previous Uno counterparts, but the new Artistico Extra White cold and rough presses offer more texture. The new cold press is comparable to the old Uno rough press, while an entirely new and enhanced rough surface has been created to finish off the Artistico Extra White line.
