Sugar Cane Watercolour Pad. Hahnemühle Sugar Cane
Hahnemühle Sugar Cane watercolour paper is the latest addition to the Hahnemühle Natural line. The 290 gsm paper consists of 70% rapidly renewable sugar cane fibres, the so-called bagasse, a by-product of sugar production. With 70% sugar cane and 30% cotton, the natural white, warm-toned watercolour paper combines the strength of sugar cane fibres and the softness of cotton. These fibres are also vegetable waste from the textile industry. The paper, with its pronounced matte surface texture, has a wonderful velvety feel. It is excellent for working with watercolour, gouache and all wet-on-wet techniques. The colours are bright and velvety. The natural fibres of the sugar cane give the paper great stability and tear resistance, so that it can absorb large amounts of water and paint without the fibres lifting or the paper curling. Colours can be easily removed from the surface and re-glazed. The paper masters colour gradients and effects, such as salt or water droplets, as well as fine lines and fineliner accents.
