Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

For watercolor painting, factors like weight, absorbency, and surface texture are crucial:

• Weight: Typically 300 gsm or higher to prevent warping under wet washes.
• Absorbency: Ensures the paint adheres and blends seamlessly.
• Surface texture: Options like cold press, hot press, or rough affect the final appearance of the artwork.
• Watermark: Indicates the paper’s brand or quality but does not impact performance.
