{"product_id":"arches-oil-pads","title":"Oil Pads","description":"\u003cp\u003eArches mills this paper from 100% cotton fiber using centuries-old techniques that produce surfaces genuinely suited to oil painting's demands. The soft texture accepts paint smoothly while providing enough tooth for proper mechanical adhesion, no slipping, no beading, no frustration with pigment that won't stay put. Acid-free composition ensures your work won't yellow or deteriorate, maintaining color fidelity over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe real advantage emerges when you're working away from the studio. These pads require zero preparation, no gesso, no sizing, no waiting for primers to cure. Pull a sheet and start painting immediately, whether you're capturing plein air landscapes or developing studies in a hotel room. The paper handles oil's unique properties without buckling or showing through to subsequent sheets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach pad binds quality sheets that tear cleanly when you're ready to frame or archive finished work. Cotton fibers create a surface with natural beauty that complements rather than competes with your painting, while the pad format keeps everything organized and protected during transport. Build a body of work without the weight and bulk of stretched canvases or rigid panels.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arches","offers":[{"title":"9 in. x 12 in. \/ 140 lb.","offer_id":47979192025317,"sku":"01054","price":24.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 in. x 16 in. \/ 140 lb.","offer_id":47979192058085,"sku":"01055","price":40.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s01054.jpg?v=1761725636","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/arches-oil-pads","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
