About this product
Canson XL Series Watercolor Paper is a trusted, student-friendly, midweight cold press paper known for its strength, absorbency, and affordability—ideal for mastering watercolor and mixed media techniques while preserving vibrant, long-lasting artwork.
We all love Canson XL Series Watercolor Paper! Trusted for decades by artists, students, hobbyists, and art teachers. Each midweight sheet is crafted with care to obtain that perfect paper texture and provide a sturdy foundation for multiple washes and layers without warping or buckling. For those of you nerdy enough to know better, our paper is 90lb/185gsm (which means the pre-cut “ream” of full-size sheets weighs 90 pounds and a single sheet of one square meter weighs 185 grams). All of this just means Canson XL watercolor paper has good absorbency and strength. So, go at it with bright colors, gradients, and detailed strokes, and even mix things up with gouache or acrylic paint for a mixed media effect. The Canson XL Series was created with students and teachers in mind – affordable, high-sheet count options with an intermediate-level performance sufficient for technical practice and showcases. Once artists are confident enough in their skillset, we recommend transitioning over to the Canson Artist Series family of paper for a museum-quality look and feel.

- ACID-FREE & ARCHIVAL QUALITY—Rest assured your artwork will stand the test of time. The acid-free nature of the paper prevents yellowing or deterioration, ensuring that your creations retain their original colors & integrity.
- LET YOUR CREATIVITY TAKE FLIGHT! Since 1557, the artisans of Canson in the South of France have supported the imaginations of artists everywhere
