hung it in my living room and trashed the blank pages
I had the opportunity to view ancient artwork of the Neolithic era and I was completely blown away by the beauty and skill of the artists. The level of detail and craftsmanship in these pieces is simply incredible, and it’s amazing to think that they were created thousands of years ago with such primitive tools. The use of color, texture, and shape in these pieces is truly inspiring and I can see how they have influenced art throughout history. I was particularly drawn to the intricate patterns and designs found in the pottery and sculptures. It was a humbling experience to be able to see and appreciate these pieces in person and I highly recommend anyone with an interest in art or history to do the same. The ancient artwork of the Neolithic era is a true testament to the enduring power and beauty of art throughout human history.

Great for pencil doodles
I think this book is great for pencil doodles. If you’re into making serious art, you can’t do that with this book because the pages are too thin, but if you want to doodle with pencil, this is a great cheap book to burn through. Mine came in yesterday, and I’ve already doodled many drawings. You can see I’m not a professional, but that’s what’s great. You can buy this cheap book and doodle away without feeling guilty about wasting it. I’ve had Barnes and Noble quality art sets and I hated the idea of wasting resources on my skills. A pencil and a seven dollar book cost very little, so I’ve expressed myself with them and now feel more comfortable about trying other things now. I bought two more, and hope to fill them out. Highly recommended for casual doodlers.

overpriced basic croquis sketchpbook
in january 2023 i paid $14 for this basic 9×12 croquis sketchbook, which seemed like an ok price based on a similar european brand of sketchbook i was going to buy at my local art supply store.it’s now november 2023 and for the last month, the sketchbook been priced between $19-$21. are you kidding me? there’s absolutely nothing special about this sketchbook to justify that price! the paper is too thin & lacking tooth to take any form of wet media and heavy markers (micron pens seems to be ok). i’m also not a fan of the cover – thin cardstock lacking durability, exactly like a cheap back to school spiral notebook.art is only a hobby and not my profession, however i would only recommend this sketchbook to someone doesn’t care about cost, those who have limited to no access to actual art supply stores, or can’t wait for a delivery from an online art supply store.

My thoughts on the sketchbook.
Since this has 100 sheets of pages, it’s perfect for animation class in case I need to make storyboards for projects. I even used the same one for my art class in high school. It’s remains one of my favorites sketchbook to use.

Pretty disappointing
Its just mediocre. Thats really it. I got the smaller one to clarify, but the paper is kinda weird because it’s really easy for the drawings to smear. I haven’t used any marker or pen at all so i cant determine how well the bleed is but like i said the pages are just annoying because the pencil smears very easily, i had to use a normal lined paper to cover the drawings so it didnt smear bad. The photos for reference: 1st photo is without a cover, 2nd photo is with the lined paper cover. I did forget to put the cover on sometimes so it did smear a bit, but not badly enough to just ruin it. I like the size because its not clunky and easy to carry but thats it

Nice little sketch book
Really nice little sketch book. Good sturdy covers so I can sketch out doors without taking a portable desk with me. (Yay, one less thing to carry.) Also, this is small enough to tuck into my purse. Just this, a pencil or two, an eraser and a sharpener, and it’s a small, easy-to-carry sketching kit.

Purchased for High School Art Class
My son needed a sketch pad for high school Art Class. He requested side spiral binding, 5.5″ x 8.5″, and a hardcover. This fit his needs for pencil drawing/coloring. Advanced art work and mediums would require a higher quality paper.

I love these sketchpads. They are inexpensive and work well with several mediums as long as you remember the weight of the paper you are working with. It is also a great paper for tinting and folding for various projects.

Paper is to thin
So got this since my old one was about to be full, got this thinking it was be good like the last one. Can’t say it was. So the paper for starters is way to thin, especially if you’re like me and use mainly dark colors for your drawings. That’s about if for complaining, it was alright just wish I knew the paper was that thin before buying.

This sketch book is really good quality for the price!
This sketch book is very nice and well worth the money. It has a normal paper texture but a little thicker. I only have used color pencils and markers and the one problem with markers (at least with alcohol markers) is they bleed badly. The cover is a thick cardboard like the back so it have withstood traveling in my bag the pages got a little bent up but it seems ok it is pretty durable. It has perforated pages so you can easily take the paper out and use it somewhere else. Versatility is great with most dry mediums. Never tried water color or paint yet. And it is a very simple sketch book. Colors show up well in the sketch book. Totally worth itBest wishes

Great Quality Sketch Journal
I’m impressed with the quality of this sketch journal (I got the 5.5 x 8 size). The paper stock is good and there are plenty of binding rings to keep everything together when being carried from place to place. Each page has perforations too, so you can remove pages that don’t come out well or those that do for framing etc. I can’t wait to finish filling this sketch book up with art.

I really love to draw a lot and I have many many full sketch books but only few bad things is that when you draw on a page and flip in you can still see the other drawing but it is sort of thick but I’m one of those people who uses alcohol markers pages are nice and big but I really like it

Okay for kids or hobbyists
The paper thickness is very nice, but the texture isn’t to my liking. I prefer the velvety feel of Canson papers, and even Strathmore sketchbooks are fine, but this texture was just a little too grainy for me. It reminded me a bit of thinner cardstock for your printer. It’s a nice weight, but it just feels cheap. It’s absolutely fine for anyone who isn’t fussy about paper, but I draw for a living, and I don’t want to draw on this stuff every day. I love Amazon basics for a lot of products, but this one’s a miss for me.
