Not bad at all

I like this sketchbook but not for all kinds of materials. It doesn't have as much absorbency as watercolor paper or texture, it doesn't have much texture at all. So if you use a lot of water-based media, this might not be the best choice for you. It's definitely durable, can withstand multiple layers, and won't seep through to the other side. My biggest complaint is how tight it buckles. I have a different brand of sketchbook that doesn't warp or warp if too much water or ink is used. I've attached some walnut ink images that have large areas of clustering due to the fact that the paper flexes a lot. If you don't use a lot of washes in your art, you probably don't have to deal with this problem.

Pros
  • Art paper
Cons
  • Some little things

Good for practicing with acrylic, watercolor, pen and pencils.
