Cold Pressed or Hot Pressed?
Cold-pressed paper has a slightly textured finish, or more “tooth”. It is often a go-to for watercolour artists as the textured finish can provide a little more water control. It is also great for those looking to accentuate the effect of pigment granulation.
Hot-press paper has a slightly smoother finish, which is great for adding detail, particularly for those using pens or pencils with wet media. When a hot-press paper is made with 100% cotton, it handles washes well and provides for a beautiful, crisp finish.
