This is a watercolor block, which means it is glued on all four sides (most paper pads are just glued at the top).  There is a gap in the glue so that pages can be carefully removed with a palette knife or butter knife.

Watercolor blocks have pre-stretched paper, so you can skip this step!  Stretched paper means that it can absorb heavy washes without buckling, puckering, or rippling.  While Arches blocks come in a wide variety of sizes, we are just carrying the 8x10 size because it is wonderfully portable and can easily be popped into a standard frame.  

A nice perk of these blocks is that they are very stiff, so there is really no need for a backing board.  It's kind of like having paper and a drawing board all in one.  

I have used Arches watercolor blocks for over twenty years.  Hope you love them too!

ARCHES Watercolour paper is made the traditional way using a cylinder mould. This method ensures that the fibres are evenly distributed which makes the paper extremely stable so it will not warp or stretch when water is applied to it. ARCHES Watercolour paper is made from long 100% cotton fibres allowing it to absorb a lot of water without warping or causing the colours to bleed. It is sized to the core with natural gelatin so it can be scratched without tearing or linting.
