📒 Arteza 8.5x11" Hardbound Sketchbook: Set of 2 Heavyweight Hard Cover Sketch Journals for Drawing, Sketching, and Journaling Review

Something like this I was looking for to throw out my innermost thoughts, doodles, sketches, diary entries, everything! Lines scare me! Do you think I'll stick to these lines!? I love these giant white sheets of LINELESS thick delicious paper. The hard cover allows you to write anywhere. Very well put together and the bookmark ribbon is a bonus. Love!

I use them for notes at school, lots of pages and enough space. Cons: 1. Not for fountain pens and not because they show through but because this paper is smooth which prevents most of my fountain pens from picking up the paper. Some are writing, and some pens are beginning to act strangely. This is a good paper if you want to find out the strange properties of your fountain pens. I recommend: YES!

If I had to bind this paper to anything, it's like US Art Supply sketchbooks but a little rougher and a little thicker. In some places they lay flat, but in others you still get such a large portion since it's a hardcover book. Overall, I think it's great so far, very nice packaging. They take crayons well, they're not sure about watercolors. SpotThey are a bit pricey but I would buy them again

The paper has excellent texture for colored pencils and charcoal. It's smooth and the colors blend easily. However, there is little room for error. A smooth texture does not allow the use of a rough eraser. Love the letter size, it's portable and easy to put in a backpack. I wish it had the ability to cut leaves but nothing a sharp knife and piece of cardboard couldn't do. I am very happy with this purchase. It not only looks and feels very professional. it is a pleasure to use.

I like this but it is damaged. I read other reviews and prayed I wouldn't be one of the losers. The damage was hidden under the edge protection that was put on it during transport. Looks like they just packed and covered up the damage. It looks like a problem with the people selling and shipping it. I am extremely disappointed. I will use this with my pencil drawings. Edit: I received a replacement and removed it, expecting them to be damaged as well. I was positively surprised. The paper is…

These sketchbooks are really affordable as the quality of the paper is perfect for general sketching and drawing, my daughter uses markers (including felt tip) in hers and leakage is minimal. The pages are not brilliant white, they are slightly whitish and much easier on the eye than carbon paper. I use mine to jot down ideas which I then transcribe onto digital or watercolor paper and as a shared place to hang out and do my hours. I'm not sure why people say they aren't durable. I have bought…
