Three times as wide as it is tall, and made for the horizon. The Art Spectrum 100% Cotton Marine Landscape Watercolour Pad gives you 15 sheets of 300gsm, 100% cotton watercolour paper in a long 450 x 150mm panoramic format.

Beaches, bays, mountain ranges, wheat fields, city skylines. Some views just do not fit in a rectangle, and this pad stops you squashing them.

What Is in the Marine Landscape Pad

Panoramic paper changes how you compose. With all that width, the horizon line becomes the star, and you start thinking about rhythm along the page: headlands, boats, clouds and gaps of open water. It is a brilliant format for loosening up, because you cannot fuss over detail across 45cm of sky.

Cotton matters even more on a long sheet. A big wash has further to travel, and cotton keeps it moving evenly instead of drying in patches. Grab a large flat or mop from our watercolour brushes so you can cover the width quickly.

Why We Love a Marine Pad

• Made for horizons. The long format suits sea, sky and land in wide bands.
• 100% cotton. Even washes across the full 45cm length.
• 300gsm weight. Takes wet in wet, glazing and lifting.
• Frame friendly. Panoramic paintings look striking in long frames above a sofa or bed.

How We Use It

Lightly mark your horizon first, usually a third of the way up or down rather than dead centre. Work big to small: sky, then distant land, then water, then the details closest to you. Tape the sheet to a board if you plan to work very wet.

Stock up on blues and greys in our watercolour paints range, or try a set from our watercolour paint sets.
