Strathmore 400 Series Sketch Pad, Recycled Paper, 3.5x5 inch, 100 Sheets - Artist Sketchbook for Drawing, Illustration, Art Class Students

Strathmore makes quality sketch pads and Bristol pads.

Paper is great quality, perfect size to carry around and great for small drawings

I love the texture of the paper. Wonderful for sketches!

Excellent sketch books just what i needed for my ink and art and blueprints and inventions godbless

This sketch pad is very nice for exactly that: sketching. This will provide more than enough room on each page to do many things and has more than enough pages to last you a while, which is great for the price. The only issue is that the pages are very thin. I am used to using sketchbooks with thicker paper that have a toothier surface. In this sketchbook, you wouldn't be able to do anything like watercolor or anything else that would potentially bleed through.I have used sharpies on them and they seem to work ok. They will bleed to the other side but will rarely bleed to the next page unless you apply a lot or apply layers.Basically, this pad is designed for dry sketching only.Pros:-Great price-Large pages-Plenty of pagesCons:-Thin pages (can't use any wet medium or things that will bleed through)

Great quality of paper for kids to draw and try different mediums!

I have been using this brand since 2000 for my sketchbooks. it was finally time for a new one and so i grabbed one online and it's great

I ended up ordering two of these sketchbooks and they are better than I thought they would be.
