I liked 'em, but I didn't really realize how good they are.A few years down the road with lots of experience with watercolors, I can really appreciate this paper. It's 100% cotton, and after talking to the folks at Strathmore a while back, I discovered it's also vegan. Yay, Strathmore! It holds paint well, it absorbs liquid at the perfect rate, the sizing is ideal for wet washes and dry brush techniques. Paints look great on this paper, and it never gets in the way of what I'm doing, which some paper does.You may already know that Strathmore's 100 series is their entry level paper, then there's the 200 series, 300 series and 400 series, and this - their 500 series - is their highest quality watercolor paper series. And you can tell the difference.So I'm happy I came back to these 5x7 series 500 sheets. I think I'll order some bigger Strathmore 500 paper, too. Good stuff! I'd say it's good for every level of watercolor painter. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow *by S***E on June 16, 2025* This is the first time I've bought this little sketchbook. I'm pleasantly surprised by the quality of this sketchbook. The paper is watercolor in coldpress, and I like the fact that the cover is flexible. It comes with a large elastic band to close the sketchbook. Ideal for outdoors, because: it's a small format. However, it's a shame there aren't more pages, and I'm still waiting for the 7 x 10 format to be available. Thank you ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great hot press watercolor paper! *by L***A on May 10, 2025* This is a great budget paper that I use quite often. I use it for detailed paintings and it does really well with them. You can paint lots of layers without harming the paper at all. This is my go-to paper when I paint detailed watercolor paintings. ## Frequently Bought Together - Strathmore 500 Series Watercolor Travel Journal, Cold Press, 5" x 8", 20 pages, White - Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolor Paint Set, Sketchers' Pocket Set, 12 Half Pan w/ Brush - Fabriano Studio Paper Pad, 9 x 12, White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/128250005-strathmore-500-series-watercolor-travel-journal-cold-press-5-x](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/128250005-strathmore-500-series-watercolor-travel-journal-cold-press-5-x) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-05*
