Watercolor paper comes in three grades, cold pressed, hot pressed, and rough.

 

Paper also comes in many different weights, such as, 140 pound.

 

Paper also comes in different sizes and even in special pads called blocks and on rolls.

 

The choice is really quite simple, BUT, if you don't know what you are doing its also really easy to waste your money on the wrong choices.
