You can't Shirley, maybe not anywhere. Its very light weight. Arches refuses to sell itor something. I can figure it out. I left a big packet of large sheets with a friend 5 years ago.i managed to squeak by just under 10 kilos in my carry-on bag. And nobody stopped me at baggage customs either... WHERE ARE YOU GOING WITH ALL THAT FRENCH WATERCOLOR PAPER MADAME? No way Arches stopped distribution in the US a while back. C'est la vie
I love your post and each and every one of your NYC photos. Total kudos for Mrs. Apfel, and also for all the USA ladies that make us proud around the world!
I remember a full moon evening last January, my sister and I walking around the heart of Paris. Then, all of a sudden, I saw a Kate Spade store, right there on Rue Saint-Honoré. What a delight to see her beautiful store...and so full of customers!
It's too bad that there wasn't time to escape from the canyons to the tree-lined streets in Greenwich Village or to take a walk in the parks along the Hudson and East Rivers. I was able to completely avoid the canyons during my last two annual visits to NYC, and it was wonderful!
Travelling between Paris and New York doesn't seem too bad! Plus you had important painting supplies to transport back home. Thanks for sharing New York with us as well as Paris!!!
Next time do an Atlantic crossing on a ship and have a nice vay-cay! 5 days to relax, read and paint, see movies and live shows, and take your motion sickness pills. Then take the train to Paris, you can take a bigger bag and not have to cut your paper so small. Just sayin'

You have assimilated! A Parisian now. What kind of paper is so special that it merits an NYC visit in person?!
