Great sketchbook for the serious artist

When I was an art student and worked at an art supply store, I tried out a lot of sketchbooks. I still buy art supplies and I have to say that the Canson Mix Media Art Book is one of my favorite books. I have bought this particular item from a large box before but was so happy to find it at Revain at a good price. The cover is thick and durable, and can be traveled and carried a lot when painting. You can count on the pages to stay in place as they fit easily in an art bag or briefcase and work great in all situations. It's also the perfect size for shelf storage. It has an immaculate wire mesh that is durable and never moves. Don't worry about tangled wires or papers when you open it. This book keeps working. Acid-free paper is a thick material and is great if you want to archive your work. The paper is perforated and of high quality, making it a good choice if you're looking to sell your art. The surface holds graphite and colored pencils and can endure a lot of rendering and erasing and even some blending. You can also use markers. I recommend this artbook for professional use. It's also a good choice for the serious art student who wants to use it for portfolio purposes or archival work for future reference. court
