Question 1

What is the Daler Rowney Simply Acrylic Pad A4 190gsm and what makes it suitable for acrylic painting?

Accepted Answer

The pad is an A4-sized (210 x 297 mm) paper pad with 190gsm textured paper designed for acrylic paints. Its absorbent surface helps with pigment retention and precise layering control, making it well-suited for acrylic techniques and study work.

Question 2

What are the key specifications of this pad?

Accepted Answer

Size: A4 (210 x 297 mm); Paper Weight: 190gsm suitable for acrylic use; Sheets: 16; Surface: Textured; Finish: Acid-free; Design: Heavyweight to resist warping and buckling; Best For: Acrylic painters and mixed-media students.

Question 3

Can I use media other than acrylics on this pad?

Accepted Answer

While optimized for acrylics, the 190gsm textured paper can handle gouache and ink well. Light washes of watercolor are possible but may cause more warping if very wet, so for heavy watercolor work you may prefer a dedicated watercolor pad.

Question 4

How does the textured surface affect painting with acrylics?

Accepted Answer

The textured surface provides better paint adhesion and can enhance blending and surface interest. It helps pigments grab and hold, which can improve pigment pickup and allow for visible brushwork and layering effects.

Question 5

How many sheets are in the pad and how do I tear out a sheet if needed?

Accepted Answer

The pad contains 16 sheets. Pages are bound in a pad format designed for clean removal; you can tear out a sheet along the binding edge when needed.

Question 6

What techniques work best for layering acrylics on this pad?

Accepted Answer

Apply in thin, even layers and allow each layer to dry before adding the next. Use light-to-moderate pressure to avoid uneven textures, and consider a flexible acrylic medium to improve flow and reduce surface tension for smoother layers.

Question 7

How can I prevent warping or buckling as I work on this pad?

Accepted Answer

Work in thinner layers, avoid soaking the paper with large amounts of water, and allow ample drying time between coats. When finished, press sheets flat under a clean book or board to help flatten and prevent buckling.

Question 8

Is this paper archival/acid-free and will it resist yellowing over time?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the paper is acid-free, which helps protect artwork from acid-related discoloration and supports longer-term archival quality.

Question 9

Which scenarios or use cases is this pad best suited for?

Accepted Answer

Ideal for acrylic practice, study sketches, color testing, and small acrylic projects. It’s a budget-friendly option for students or hobbyists who want a reliable textured acrylic-friendly paper.
