Our verdict

A solid lay-flat sketchbook for dry media, but the wrong pad if watercolor or alcohol markers are the plan.

Overview

A 100-sheet spiral sketchbook at 9 by 12 inches on 68 lb acid-free paper, built for dry media like pencil, charcoal and pastel rather than wet media such as watercolor or alcohol markers.

The top spiral binding lets the pad lie flat when open, which matters for long sketching sessions where a glued pad would want to close itself. The brand states plainly that this is a dry-media paper and points to its separate marker and watercolor pads for wet work, a distinction worth noting before assuming any sketchbook handles paint. Pages are micro-perforated for clean removal.

  • 100 sheets at 68 lb
  • Top spiral, lay-flat binding
  • Acid-free, pH neutral
  • Dry media only: pencil, pen, charcoal, pastel

Who it's for

Kids, teens and adult hobbyists sketching with pencil, pen, charcoal or pastel who want a lay-flat pad. Not for anyone planning to paint with watercolor or alcohol-based markers in it.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 100 sheets, 9 x 12 inches
  • Top spiral lets the pad lie flat when open
  • Acid-free, pH neutral paper
  • Micro-perforated pages for clean removal
Cons
  • Not suited to watercolor or alcohol-based markers
  • 68 lb weight is lighter than dedicated watercolor stock

Performance notes

The 68 lb acid-free sheet is weighted for dry media to resist bleed and feathering from pens and pencils, but it is not sized or sealed to handle the moisture load of watercolor or alcohol ink without warping.
