Recommended it

Excellent product

It's quite big and pages are really thick.. Recommended one...loved it

I still didn’t use it but this paper is known that they are great. I like this size its not big not small.

Ti promette che puoi usare acquarelli,acrilici, gouache, penna e matite e mantiene la sua promessa alla grande! L'ho testato con lavori abbastanza impegnativi così da vederne quanto si può spingere e sono rimasta sorpresa, la qualità è strabiliante, l'aspetto del foglio non molto spesso ti inganna perchè quando ho usato gli acquarelli ha mantenuto benissimo l'acqua, non si è mai rovinato mentre dipingevo, insomma fantastico. L'ho comprerò di nuovo subito appena finisco questo che ho preso, ve lo consiglio!!

I thought I wasn't too found of this paper since I remember buying a much larger pad of it and returning it, but I'm very happy to have this in a smaller size. This isn't as thick as the Strathmore series even though they say they are the same, this is obviously thinner. But it seems to be a decent mixed media paper, and at the right price! There is a very slight tooth to this paper, but is still relatively smooth. Enough to use colored pencil in mixed media, but you might want more tooth for larger projects that require more tooth. Watercolor goes down really well on these, not soaking into the paper, but spreading evenly. The paper does bend a bit with the water, but not too badly. Nothing a little weight on it couldn't mend out. Pen and ink go down great on these, again the smoothness carries the ink far. The thickness of this paper holds everything I've put on it including oil pastels, and watercolors. I'm very confident it would hold acrylics with ease. I think this is actually a really decent mixed media paper, it is the closest thing I have found to being able to hold that name.

Résiste bien à l'eau et aux superpositions. Format pratique.

Ich habe dieses Skizzenbuch jetzt schon drei Mal gekauft und es ist wirklich mein Go-to Block. Ich kann von farb swatches jeglicher Art über Skizzen bis zu fertigen Bildern alles darin anfertigen ohne übermäßiges Durchbluten (bei copic Markern) oder dem Hauch einer Welle bei nass in nass Aquarell. Die Spiralbindung war am Anfang ein Graus jedenfalls in meinem Kopf. Denn jetzt liebe ich, dass man die Seiten komplett umklappen kann. Ich habe vorher die Leuchtturm 1917 Skizzenbücher benutzt und das Papier hatte gefühlt jedes mal eine andere Qualität. Das ist hier nicht der Fall. Ich brauche ca 2-3 Monate um ein Buch zu füllen und benutze beide Seiten jedes Blattes weil eben nichts durchblutet. Das Cover ist harte Pappe was ebenfalls ein Bonus ist. Der einzige Nachteil ist, dass ich jedes Mal wenn ich ein neues bestelle, mindestens 2€ mehr zahle als beim letzten Mal. Das erste kostete nur 12€ und mittlerweile sind es 17+€ Ich werde es trotzdem weiter kaufen und empfehlen da es meiner Meinung nach das beste mixed media Papier ist das ein Künstler sich wünschen kann. Achso und wenn man viel mit Bleistift malt sollte man entweder Papier zwischen die Seiten legen oder fixierspray benutzen da es durch die Ringbindung zu flexiblen Blättern kommt die sich aneinander reiben.... Ist aber nicht weiter schlimm und sieht auch ganz hochwertig aus wenn man transparentpapier nimmt.

I was really excited on receiving this Mix Media book for my watercolors. It even came well packed. BUT -- Pro's : the paper is of good quality. The paper is thin n smooth surface. Con's : It was a waste of my money as I bought it for making watercolour paintings. The paper is bumpy EVERYWHERE once it gets wet. It's like you're painting on a roller coaster. I'm not kidding nor am I exaggerating. It's truth. Maybe this is good for pencil sketches but NOWAY for watercolurs. I already finished two paintings n it looks awful. Even after sticking the borders of the paper with masking or painter's tape it still bumps. The 140 gsm paper i bought in a normal store near my home is thicker and better than this. I'm thinking of using it for sketching or something... Since it costed so much... I don't want to throw it... Better to buy paper that is speclly meant for watercolours, than this.
