Product Description
Stonehenge Aqua Coldpress Family of Blocks
Making paper is an art. Since our 1994 inception, we have played a pioneering role in the world of fine art paper. We travel the globe on a never ending search for the finest papers from the finest manufacturers. To date, we offer more than three thousand existing papers from sixteen countries but our quest continues. Most importantly, we listen to the needs of our clients and constantly seek out new ways for them to enhance their work. We put vision into paper. We are paper.
Stonehenge Aqua
Stonehenge Aqua is as finely crafted as it is affordable. It has been tested to its limits and as it turns out, it has no limits.
Wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, it has a wonderful crispness that anchors beautiful work across every task and technique. Blending is effortless, lifting is no longer a chore. It welcomes masking while never relinquishing the control you both demand and desire. Bright colors dry bright. Blocks or sheets, it’s flat paper that dries flat.
The Stonehenge Aqua Family
Stonehenge Aqua Black
The first 100% cotton black watercolor paper: Stonehenge Aqua Coldpress Black. Black paper is an exciting, new world. Instead of building up shadows, one builds up light. It’s a place where negative space is transformed into positive. And while it may be dark, it’s a chance for those who live and breathe watercolors to bring a new breed of creativity to light.
Wide Range of Surfaces & Weights
Stonehenge Aqua is available in a smooth Hotpress and a more textured Coldpress Surface, in both 140lb (300gsm) and 300lb (600gsm) weights.
Variety of Formats and Sizes Available
Stonehenge Aqua is available in sheets up 22" x 30" and the following formats in blocks and pads:
5"x7", 7"x7", 7"x10", 8"x10", 9"x12", 10"x10", 10"x14", 12"x16", 14"x20", 18"x24'

I am just starting to try out painting on black. So far I only used white for a dove. Look forward to painting other colors with gouache and ordering it in a larger size

I decided to use it for the first time for a portrait of a friends dog, to give to him as a birthday gift. The paper was great for oil colored pencils, it hold up with all the layers and the colors looked really nice. I am definitely using this paper on other projects.

When gouache dries it shows much better than when wet, but that also means when wet, it's hard to tell what color something is and it's hard to blend or see if color match/fit.The metalic watercolor goes on great with this paper! Dries true to color.Fun to experiment! Definitely try it!

I bought this paper along with a set of metallic watercolors. It is very nice paper, good quality, thick and cold pressed. I can't wait to make some more art with it, the metallic paints show up very nicely on it.

This paper is everything I'd hoped for. Truest of black, very sturdy making wet on wet worry free and no buckling even on the edges. Expensive enough to say not for beginners! I'm mediocre so I'll be very stingy with it for a while. Would definitely recommend.
