Review on Pentalic Nature Sketch Pad, 12x6 inches - Enhanced SEO-friendly Product Title by Barbara Simmons

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not the stated size.

I've been looking and searching for a long time for a 7x5 inch sketchbook that will hold acrylic paints and watercolor pencils. I finally came across this Pentalic. I used to buy a Pentalic watercolor album made in "book" style. like this folder. It's good. And this is regular paper. It's not as good for wet media in my opinion as the reviewers seem to indicate. But it's okay. My big problem with this notebook is the size. Actually it isn't. 7" x 5". The paper is EXACTLY 5 feet wide so the ring binder will cut into the 5 inch page. Actual usable width is closer to 4-1/2 inches! :( Probably not a big deal for many of you users. But I bought some plastic display frames. Narrow paper doesn't look right in custom made frames. for 5 inch wide paper. So too bad. I'm still can a sketchbook use but I did NOT buy it for that.It works but my Fabriano watercolor block is just the right size and this Pentalic could be the same.
