Stonehenge Aqua Paper Blocks – Legion Paper

R699.00R2 199.00

Legion Stonehenge Aqua Watercolour Blocks
Professional-grade performance. Paper that holds its ground.

Designed for artists who expect more from their materials, Stonehenge Aqua Blocks by Legion Paper offer an exceptional surface for watercolour and mixed media techniques. Made from 100% cotton and internally sized for balanced absorbency, these blocks behave beautifully under pressure, whether you’re layering washes, lifting pigment, or chasing fine details in delicate gradations. Each block is glued on all four sides, keeping your paper flat and secure while you work, with no need for taping or stretching. Once dry, your painting can be easily separated using a palette knife or bone folder.

Available in two finishes, Hot Press and Cold Press, each surface offers its own unique character while maintaining the same outstanding performance:

Stonehenge Aqua Cold Press
Richly textured with a natural tooth, this cold press surface absorbs water evenly, making it ideal for wet-in-wet techniques, soft edge work, and blending. It responds beautifully to layering, masking, and lifting, and holds up to repeated reworking without buckling or pilling.

Stonehenge Aqua Hot Press
Smooth and velvety, the hot press version allows for razor-sharp line work, subtle tonal washes, and clean, controlled detailing. Water moves across the surface more slowly, giving you time to manipulate pigment and develop soft transitions — perfect for botanical work, illustration, or stylised rendering.

Description

From the manufacturer:

“Making possibilities a reality is why Stonehenge Aqua came to be. Watercolour is all about possibilities. Because it’s not just about beautiful paint. There’s another factor: a wonderfully, whimsical element – water. Together, they allow for form and flow, chaos and connection, beauty and structure.

Made with 100% cotton fibre, Stonehenge Aqua is as finely crafted as it is affordable. Performing way beyond its price point, it has been tested to its limits and as it turns out, it has no limits.

Wet-on-wet or wet-on-dry, it has a wonderful crispness that anchors beautiful work across every task and technique. With Stonehenge Aqua, blending is effortless, lifting is no longer a chore. It welcomes masking while never relinquishing the control you both demand and desire. Bright colours dry bright. Blocks or sheets, it’s flat paper that dries flat.”

Stonehenge Aqua Hot press: Smooth and silky. Water permeates this paper slowly, allowing time for fine details and subtle colour gradations. Pigments tint bright and radiant. An innovative, custom-made paper to fulfil the needs of watercolour artists.

Stonehenge Aqua Cold press: Hand-crafted with the watercolourist in mind, this rugged and textured substrate is our latest creation in artisan paper. Each cold pressed sheet naturally receives applied moisture, making it ideal for blending and lifting colour.

Applications:

  • Calligraphy.
  • Intaglio.
  • Letterpress.
  • Pastel & Charcoal.
  • Pen & Ink.
  • Silkscreen.
  • Watercolour.
