Tip- How to Flatten Watercolor Paper

September 27, 2017 December 7, 2022 dm

Lately I’ve been painting on either watercolor blocks or 300# Canson paper that requires no stretching and stays relatively flat. However I do at times need to flatten the paper before mounting on a board and framing.

This is a short video that shows how I flatten watercolor paper if needed. Someone asked about the heat setting on the iron. I’m not sure exactly but my wife usually keeps it on a cotton setting so that’s probably where it landed!
