A while back, I ordered lots of A2 cartridge paper (something like 200 sheets). But I didn't check the weight of it. And it's too light for what I wanted to used it for, ink and watercolour experiments with a fair amount of water and scribbling. It's really only good for charcoal or light drawing, which I don't do much of. So, it's sitting under my desk, and I'm finding uses for it (the only thing is that it's super sharp, so I have to be careful about paper cuts - and no, I'm not using it to rest my feet!)
So now I've ordered a block of heavy-weight cartridge paper and I experimented with some inks, and I'm much happier with the result. Even more so after cropping. Now I want to do something like that in watercolour. Will I be able to create the same intensity?
