Uglybooks paper is great for most media, but is not treated for watercolor use, even though you will see artists working with watercolors on them.
All Uglybooks paper is made from responsibly sourced ECF (Elemental Chlorine Free) virgin fiber. It is archival quality as well as acid and lignen free. This paper is meant to stand the test of time.
We use biodegradable shrink-wrap except for our Mystery packs.
