Description of 🎨 Bamboo Pocket Size Blank Spiral Bound Sketchbook for Drawing and Mixed Media, 4x5 - Artist's Drawing Pad and Sketch Journal

*** CHECK YOUR SIZE!! *** THIS ONE IS 4" X 5". You'll enjoy having your sketchbook readily available for quick sketching on the go. And with 60 pages, it's a great size for backpacks, purses, and taking everywhere!. Superior pure white Bristol paper - Your drawings will be truly beautiful on this 30% recycled, acid free paper. The pages have just the right texture and feel great to draw on. Excellent for mixed media - While perfect for pencil sketches, this sketchbook also works well for markers, ink, pastels, colored pencils, crayons, charcoal, pastels, calligraphy, and Zentangle. Even permanent markers won't bleed through! (Alcohol markers and other "wet" markers may bleed through.) Note that the Sutter Lane Sketchbook is not intended to replace Bristol Board, watercolor board, or art paper (it is, after all, a sketchbook), but you'll be amazed at how versatile the paper is. Sturdy pages - No need to worry about repeated erasures or normal hard pressure. Made in the USA. When you order today, your purchase is 100% guaranteed. Plus, you're covered by world class customer service! This is the best gift ever for all of the artists in your life.

The sketchbook case on Sketchbooks & Notebooks

The size is good, the cover is not cut properly so it looks sloppy. I'm not sure why I should rate this item for cleanliness. If it were brighter/clearer I would return it as NOT suitable and incorrectly advertised. The paper itself meets the minimum standards.

Pros
  • is understandable even from the old
Cons
  • Approximately

Good for watercolors, bleeds across the page with alcohol based markers

I really like this sketchbook. The paper is of surprisingly good quality and you can not only draw on it with pencil and pen, but much more. I've used watercolors, permanent markers, Sakura pens and markers, acrylic paints, calligraphy inks and pens, Copic markers and the paper hasn't fallen apart. Regarding bleeding, alcohol based markets will happen and you can paste something under the current page you are working on to prevent it from leaking onto the next page. It's also quite durable, I…

Pros
  • Ideal for mixed media. While this album is perfect for pencil sketching, it also works well with markers, inks, pastels, colored pencils, colored pencils, charcoal, pastels, calligraphy, and zentangle. Even permanent markers won't show through! (Alcohol pencils and other "wet" pencils may bleed through.) Please note that the Sutter Lane Sketchbook is not intended to replace a Bristol board, watercolor board, or drawing paper (it is a sketchbook, after all), but you will be amazed at just how versatile paper is is.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

cheap and low quality

Ordered this as one of my child's Christmas gifts as it is a good size to take home. For over $8, I was expecting a sketchbook with a nice cover and decent papers inside. When I received it, I found the sleeves made of thin paper that couldn't even stand the shaking during shipping and was quite wrinkled. Upon closer inspection, I can see that the covers were scratched and the edges frayed, as if the book had been pushed around a lot. I wasn't expecting a high end sketchbook but I was…

Pros
  • Superior quality pure white Bristol paper. This 30% recycled and acid-free paper makes your drawings really beautiful. The pages have the right texture and are fun to draw on.
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Excellent weight, size and design for magazine collage.

I bought this sketchbook to use in my collages and I am very satisfied with the quality and design of this item. The pages have a comfortable weight and a pure white color. What I particularly like about this magazine is the spiral binding and page size. The spiral binding allows me to fold the magazine as I work page by page, saving space on my desk. The page size is perfect for my magazine collages as most of my artwork is 8.5 x 11 inches. A magazine of this size is harder to find and I'm…

Pros
  • Strong sides. No need to worry about repeated erasing or the usual hard pressing.
Cons
  • Crumpled
