Review on πŸ“’ Strathmore 400 Artagain Pad, Coal Black, 9"x12" Glue Bound, 24 Sheets by Summer Hendricks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

From damp sponge to Victory Pad!

So I started off on a low note because my delivery box was IN A RUBBER and completely ruined it. HOWEVER Amazon customer service is AMAZING (shout out to them) and replaced the item for free. Now that I can actually use it I can say that this is a REALLY good black paper notebook. It's a true black with a slight hint of blue, making it nice and neutral (unlike some other black pads). The paper has a good medium thickness so layering with charcoal/pastel/dry medium works very well. Haven't tried it with watercolor pencils yet but will update if I try. Pros: 1. True black 2. Really good customer service 3. Pleasant paper with a light texture, ideal for use in dry environments. Cons: 1. I have to buy more.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
