The Strathmore Series 200 Watercolor Pad invites you to experiment with color, flow and texture. Its 15 sheets of 190gsm cold press, acid-free paper provide a versatile surface that handles watercolor, gouache, tempera and thinned acrylics with ease. The texture has enough tooth to hold washes and pigment beautifully, while still being smooth enough for detail and controlled strokes.
Designed as part of the Series 200 (Student) line, it’s a great option for those learning watercolor techniques, practicing new skills or simply exploring how different media behave on cold press paper. Whether you’re experimenting with wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry or layering, this pad offers a reliable surface for artistic play and progress.
