Overview
An 8.5 x 11 inch spiral-bound sketchbook with a hardcover, 80 sheets of 90gsm double-sided paper. Aimed at hobby and student artists working in pencil, pen, pastel or charcoal.
The spiral binding lets pages fold flat or flip fully to the back, and each sheet has a perforated edge for clean removal. The seller notes the paper is not meant for markers, so buyers working mainly in that medium should look elsewhere.
- 8.5 x 11 inch, 80 sheets
- 90gsm (60lb) double-sided paper
- Spiral binding with perforated edges
- Acid-free, hardbound cover
Who it's for
Suits students and casual sketchers who want a durable, lay-flat pad for everyday practice with dry media. Not the choice for anyone sketching primarily with markers, since the paper isn't rated for that.
Pros and cons
- Spiral binding allows the pad to lay fully flat
- Perforated pages tear out cleanly
- Acid-free paper resists yellowing over time
- Sturdy double-sided hardcover protects the pad
- Not suited to marker work
- 90gsm is on the lighter side for heavy wet media
Performance notes
Pages are rated to withstand repeated erasing and firm pressure without tearing, and the acid-free stock is formulated to resist yellowing so finished sketches hold their color over time. The waterproof hardcover adds protection for the book itself when tossed in a bag.
