this journal 
cold pressed paper, medium. It is best for beginners. The thinner paper is ok for sketching, but not good for really wet techniques. There is also the heavier Arches paper. The 600 gsm is even nicer but also twice as expensive.
I've tried many cheaper papers - it's good to try different ones, but also recommend at least 300 gsm.
I have never tried water colours, so I have learned of thickness of paper, cotton and wood paper.
The higher the (g) the thicker the paper.
I looked up the problem of paper curling at the ends.
Very cool idea to put in your journal.
thanks MD~~
For example, for my work are best cold pressed papers, with rough surface - I bought a little block of hot pressed paper, but I cannot work on it, for me it is just not working. So a new paper is always kind of new adventure
Yes, I see, the paper quality is really the key, along with quality paints.
Well, my friend, the quality comes through loud and clear, upon seeing your work!
Your work is excellent, and your money is spent wisely!
I mean this.
There are very few artists that can capture the mystery of the mind through their watercolor works.
You are a one lady show.
