Collection: Watercolor Paper Panels

Due to their transparency, watercolors bring striking luminosity and depth. These unique qualities, as well as watercolor's liquid nature, mean it requires a particular surface for painting. We offer watercolor paper panels in various sizes, giving your designs a professional look and excellent quality.

We Get Watercolor

Watercolor is a pigment with an unpredictable nature. It often creates organic shapes and unexpected results. These particular qualities call for a surface that can enhance its beauty. The ideal watercolor board for painting will absorb moisture properly to create smooth blends of color. Watercolor needs a proper canvas size and material to absorb appropriately and keep pigment on the surface long enough for you to blend it.

The paper should also be heavier than regular paper so it stays flat and won't tear when exposed to water. To last, watercolor paper must have durable construction from a material like cotton, which can keep your artwork fresh and undamaged for many years.

Trekell Cold Press Paper Panels

At Trekell, we understand the nuances of watercolor painting and offer the ideal surface for your artwork. We adhere watercolor paper to boards to prevent the paper from buckling as you paint. This innovative design stands out from other watercolor painting options like watercolor paper blocks. With watercolor panels, you get a finished surface for your artwork. 

Our paper panels use Fabriano 300 gsm cold press paper on a Baltic birch panel. Here are a few qualities that enhance these watercolor panels:

  • A cold press paper offering beautiful texture and absorbency
  • 100% cotton construction for strength and ideal pigment binding
  • A medium-weight design offering stability for any technique, including wet-on-wet
  • Acid-free construction to preserve your paintings without yellowing
  • The highest quality Baltic birch backing
  • Wood sealed with Golden GAC100 to prevent damage from moisture or UV rays
  • Beva Film bonding to securely adhere the paper to the substrate
