What is Synthetic Paper?
Synthetic paper is smooth and does not absorb paint like traditional watercolor paper. Instead, as the water evaporates, the pigment dries on the paper. Opaque synthetic paper is bright white, which makes the paint colors appear even more intense. The paper is also available among art supplies in a translucent form and in varying weights.
