What sketch book should i get




















These pages are definitely not flat so they can be nice for rendering although it is sketchbook paper. This is one of the few spiral-bound sketchbooks that actually lays flat or close to flat. It does not have many pages but every sheet comes from recycled paper and they some nice texture to avoid that flat feeling.

The Pro Art spiral-bound sketchbook is yet another A4 8. However one big downside is the quantity. You only get 80 sheets of paper which is still pretty low considering others come with But every sheet is perforated and comes with a bit of texture too.

This is high-quality thick paper made for ink or pencil and charcoal. All-in-all a decent buy for the price. There are dozens of toned sketchbooks to try with different shades of tan or grey. And the Strathmore Toned Tan sketchbook is an excellent choice for breaking into the world of toned sketchbooks. You can hit this paper with anything from graphite to charcoal, chalk to China markers or colored pencils. Seriously this paper quality is incredible.

You can absolutely use this to create finished drawings with any medium you like. Either way I highly recommend Strathmore for toned work specifically for beginners. As you get better working on toned paper you can certainly branch out and try others too. But you can use everything from ink to copic markers. Nothing will bleed through to the other side. Finding a quality sketchbook that also supports markers is a huge task.

One thing I like about the Global Art Materials sketchbooks is the diversity of styles. Take for example their large landscape sketchbook measuring 5. From this basic setup you can choose between four different colors for the cover red, blue, black, and green. And you can pick from five different sizes that also support these differently colored covers.

Surprisingly these are resilient sketchbooks that can take pretty much anything. You can go to town with markers, graphite, charcoal, any type of ink… pretty much any mediums can work well in this sketchbook. However watch out for watercolors because they may not bleed through, but they can crinkle the pages.

The sheer variety and style of this sketchbook makes it perfect as a travel companion. The paper is thick and textured. It comes with a Bristol vellum surface which is tailor made for grabbing any type of pencil, charcoal, crayon, or any similar dry medium. You only get 62 pages which can be a letdown since the price is higher than most sketchbooks. The Strathmore series comes in landscape orientation with a spiral binding which is perfect for resting on an easel or a drawing board, indoors or outdoors.

However that one only comes with 24 pages while the Strathmore has a total of 30 pages mixing cold press watercolor and sketch. I cannot recommend this enough for watercolorists. The paper quality is superb and yes it can be a bit pricey.

It has a similar design with stronger pages, yet no spiral binding unfortunately. Looking for the strongest sketchbook known to man? This thing is absolutely massive totaling pages front and back for a total of sides of paper to sketch your heart away. Instead this works better for artists who want to watch their progression over time. Water Brushes. Watercolor Palettes.
