Watercolor Paper Comparison: Cellulose vs 100% cotton, Strathmore vs Arches

Strathmore vs Arches watercolor paper. I am doing a watercolor paper comparison between a cellulose paper and a 100% cotton paper. We are taking the Strathmore & Arches watercolor paper head to head to see what the differences are. I will be doing several tests on the paper as well as a painting demonstration on each paper and talking about the differences on how each paper handles different watercolor painting technique and what it is like to paint on them.
Please enjoy and I hope you found this video informative!
