Artist’s Sketchbook Hardcover – 200GSM Very Thick Paper – Spiral Sketch Book for Drawing and Mixed Media – Sketch Pad, Art Book - 5.8 x 8.5, 40 Sheets / 80 Pages

High quality smooth paper that is good for mixed media (I used pencil, pen, acrylic marker, and watercolor.) Paper is thick enough that the pen and markers don’t bleed through. Only criticism is for some reason the pencil doesn’t erase as completely as other sketchbooks I’ve had do. Paper is strong; while water does warp it, I was able to do several passes with my wet brush with no degradation or ‘pilling’ of the paper. The attached photo is what I mean when I say the water warps the paper. This is the back of the page after applying many layers of watercolor to the front Overall great sketchbook for the price. Will be buying again.

This sketchbook came in super quick and the paper is good, thick quality. I strive to find sketchbooks that have thicker paper for media that bleeds easy and this paper does not bleed through. It has a good amount of pages and it is large enough to give me room to sketch but small enough it's easy to carry around. I love drawing on this paper. It is a great price and I would recommend it to everybody who needs a low cost but high quality sketchbook.

Absolutely love it. The spiral spine makes it very portable and not taking up a lot of room because instead of having to unfold the entire two pages, you see one at a time and it doesn't break down as easy as hard-spined sketchbooks do. Easy to use, just pull it out any time and it is perfect size. My colors, whether it be markers or watercolor, come out perfectly. Worth the money, the paper doesn't bleed, and when you're drawing on it, it has a nice, textured paper that personally helps my abilities to form my shapes. Drawability: 5/5

This is an absolutely beautiful SketchBook. I love the hard bound back and front. It helps it to be sturdy and long-lasting. The pages are great! Very thick at 90 lb. Perfect for all sorts of mediums! And a great value for the money. Super affordable.

As a self-taught artist, I really like this sketchbook and think it's good quality. Yes it's a little more expensive than others you might find, but it's worth the price. So far I've only used graphite pencils and some pens on it. The pens don't really bleed through (there is very slight bleed if you look closely but it's not a problem), and pencils don't leave too much of a mark after being erased. It's a good size, so great for multiple drawings, although it's not the easiest to carry around (you'd need a decent sized bag to fit it in). Overall I'm very happy with it!

I bought this book for Inktober as I wanted to see if this item could handle ink considering it say it's 200GSM I however was disappointed to find out it didn't handle ink that well it handled it decently, but it still buckled and warped the paper a little, HOWEVER It was better than I thought it was going to be considering it a cheap sketchbook and claims to just be a sketchbook which is a indication to me this paper wasn't going to do what I needed it to do. However, the quality of the paper otherwise was good, and I've grown an attachment to this sketchbook due to it still being rough, but never really tearing until a great amount of water was placed on it. I think if you're looking for a general sketchbook, give it a shot; otherwise, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.

I'm using this sketchbook for a lot of different reasons but I have been doing art, drawing and sketching, painting, etc since I was in high school and I am 49 years old now. This high quality paper and is perfect for many different types of mediums. I am using graphite and charcoal and Penn currently and it's been great. Absolutely love it and I love the black cover because I was able to design my front with the right colored pencils!

This is my third purchase of this item. I think the quality for the price is exceptional. So far, I have only used with ink, colored pencils, and markers. The markers (Sharpie extra fine) bled through but for ink work, I love the smoothness of the paper. My usual watercolor journals are no longer available, so I will try these out with wet media and see how they do. I would definitely recommend

La carnet est super, les pages sont epaisses et facile a décrocher rien a dire au top! 👌

This A5 sketchbook has been my loyal companion through bold artistic visions and even bolder stick figures. It’s the perfect size: small enough to fit in a bag, yet large enough to capture my greatest ideas before I forget them 12 seconds later. The paper is smooth, thick, and clearly more professional than I am. It patiently accepts pencil, pen, and the emotional weight of unfinished masterpieces. No bleed-through, no judgment—just quiet support as I confidently draw something amazing and then immediately ruin it. I’ve used it for sketches, doodles, deep thoughts, grocery lists, and one very dramatic attempt at realism that looks like a haunted potato. The binding has held strong despite me flipping pages like I’m in a dramatic art montage. Highly recommend this sketchbook for artists of all levels—especially beginners, procrastinators, and people who just like owning art supplies because it feels productive. Would absolutely buy again once I finish the remaining 95% of blank pages.

Paper is good quality

love the pages, thick but not too thick, perfect for my pen and marker illustrations.

a mi hija le gusto mucho
