Review on 📔 Strathmore 483-5 Softcover Watercolor Art Journal, 8x5.5, White, 24 Pages by Susannah Whitebird

I really like the cover of this sketchbook as I prefer flexible covers over hard covers. Especially for travel. The only problem is that the pages are slightly creased. Not too curved, just a little so it doesn't stay flat, making it difficult to control the strong strokes of the watercolor. There was also a small tear on the cover, as well as a small dent. I even returned it for the second one but it was bent too. The paper itself looks great even though I only used water mixed ink. I also have a hardcover version of this album from this Strathmore and it didn't have folded pages or anything. Nice little travel/portable sketchbook. It would have been 5/5 if it hadn't been bent twice.
