Review on Global Art Materials Drawing Journal by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent.

I really like it so far! This is a very good size. Not so big that it's intimidating, but not so small that it's impossible to make large enough art. I read somewhere that watercolor shouldn't be used on it or the pages will warp a lot, but that's not the case. I used staples to hold the page and then used Winsor & Newton Cotman watercolors on the front cover to create the design. The page is slightly creased, but you can only see it very slightly on the back. The elastic of the book is also very good. It's not loose, but it's not too tight either, so you can't add other paper for things like collages. It is great. The bookmark inside is also very nice. It lies flat so you can still fully close the book. The pages don't lie flat at first, but if you bend the book a bit they mostly lie flat, but I would recommend trimming the pages as you draw. All in all a very good purchase and I will buy again once I've finished this one.
