Definitely the choice for Solid Mix Media!

Media could not be loaded. I've been looking for a new reliable brand of mixed media drawing books for a long time and a friend recommended this brand to me and this book takes others I've tried to complete and SHAME! Not only is the quality of the paper absolutely amazing (it just feels fantastic), it's also thick enough to carry most multimedia items. A lot of mixed paper warps BADLY when you use wetter media like watercolor and this stuff isn't as harsh as some of the other brands I've used. (It still warps a little). Again, as far as bleeding goes with alcohol markers (the products I use most often), it's not nearly as bad as some of the other brands I've used. And while I couldn't find it online (I've found them in various stores), they have thicker papers specifically designed for mediums like watercolor, ink, and even acrylic. Another cool feature of all the books I've found (including this one) is that you can take a page out and put it back in. The page can be easily reinserted or permanently deleted as it is also perforated. There's also a cool little chart on the inside front page that shows the difference between the types of paper used and the media that are compatible/best suited. And again I think it's pretty cool. Definitely my new brand choice!
