Wonderful water colour paper.

I bought these books for rough paintings, and I must say that I am really impressed. The paper handles watercolour (paints and pencils) and mixed media really well (so much better than the moleskin sketch books I have been using). You can't really layer up too much - but that's OK with me as I wouldn't attempt a finished piece in a sketch book. I like the size of the book and the texture of the paper. The books have strong and durable covers - great buy!

Decent quality paper,worth the price.

This is a nice large pair of sketchbooks and great with wet media. Good price fast delivery.

Amazing product. Love the pages including the mixture between cold and hot pressed. Had my doubts about being able to use both sides of the sheet but it worked. Very pleased and will get them again. Also appreciated the plastic pouch in the end and the texture of the fabric cover.

After already purchasing the small sketchbooks. I went for this larger version, and so pleased that the paper is exactly the same! These are really nice sketchbooks and hold watercolour very well... love them!

Think it would be good for mixed media but struggling with my Arteza watercolour brush pens...it soaks up the pigment before you get a chance to add the water. ..have the ring bound Arteza watercolour paper and it's brilliant. If you want to use it for water colours I wouldn't recommend it. Having said that my Inktense work OK .

Arteza hat das Papier geändert, was bedeutet, dass man nun auf beiden Seiten mit Aquarell malen kann. Davor war es immer so, dass die Seiten im Skizzenbuch gewechselt haben zwischen rauen Aquarellseiten und der glatten Rückseite, auf der man nur zeichnen konnte. Das ist nun nicht mehr so und man kann das gesamte Buch as Aquarellbuch nutzen. Günstiges Skizzenbuch mit guter Qualität. Ideal für alle, die viel zeichnen oder damit anfange wollen.

Muy Buenos estos cuadernos, perfecto para acuarela. Buenos acabados

Prijs/kwaliteit verhouding is goed. Verwacht er geen wonderen van, maar de drempel om deze schetsboeken te vullen is heel laag en daar is beslist wat voor te zeggen!

It's really affordable for its thickness and size. The texture of each pages are not all the same (some pages are smooth, some are rough) but it's not too bad as long as you use the right medium for it. I tried using gouache, watercolor, and colored pencil and so far, I'm fine with it . All in all, it's a great buy!

I use this book for my mixed media art journaling. I have put this book through extensive abuse and the paper has withstood both delicate art effects and extreme mixed media decoupage treatment. The spine is under extreme pressure on one book now due to the thick layers I have added and it still has not broken. Very impressive for this price range. The paper is mid grade watercolor (not student grade and not horrible but it is not high end artist grade). I have tried multiple watercolor effects with lots of success and minimal warping for this paper grade. I have come across some pages with strange substances on them (perhaps too much sizing or inconsistent sizing). Overall…these sketchbooks are good enough that I have repurchased them and always look forward to working in them.
