I shopped for a long while in search of multi-media pads and selected these, due to description, reviews and the festive Fish on the cover!Am so glad~of~heart that I did: generous size & weight. Shall purchase again, I'm sure.

I am a mixed media artist so use a variety of paint with this paper from acrylic to gouache to watercolor. This is NOT similar to thick watercolor paper, but a great inexpensive thinner alternative. Don't expect to use an immense amount of water on this paper without it warping it a little. I use washes of color and let it dry in between then add another. Works great and have ordered this same set three times now.

Es muy buena la calidad de la libreta tanto la pasta,el espiral, y las hojas vienen bastante gruesas para poder soportar ser pintadas ,el tamaño es ideal sin tener límites al expresarse, las hojas cuentan con puntos para recortar si así se desea, ¡super bien!

These are pretty nice sketch pads. I’d like stiffer cover and back boards but a piece of Masonite as a drawing board solves that problem.The paper itself is ok. The front side has nice tooth but the back side is very smooth so if you’re using both sides they behave differently under a pencil. I also found that both water based and permanent markers bleed through a bit so don’t plan to use both sides of a page with markers. Use of watercolor paint however does not bleed through and I’ve painted both sides with no problem.

I like using these for my fashion degree as I like to use a lot of mixed media it handles water colours excellently as well as charcoals, pencils, pastels etc.I also like that it’s designed for you to tear out the pages if you need.Really good for value.

Love the size! The paper is sturdy . Texture is heavier in one side and smooth on the other . I love having two; while one dries I work in the other ! I use a lot of acrylics , collage and oil pastels . I haven’t had a problem and will definitely be buying again !

As someone who has bought, almost entirely, Strathmore this is a MILLION times better quality than Strathmore! I bought the 11x14 bundle pack and thrilled with how beautiful this paper is! I'm not sure if this will make sense to you but it FEELS good to draw on! So far I have only used dry media in mine but it makes graphite look stunning so I haven't wanted to do nothing but use graphite! How well it picks up graphite is super satisfying! I bought a $35 piece of nice paper (it was like this soft, long fibered, paper) back in college for an art project, and I compare these sketchbooks to THAT paper! Unbelievable quality for drawing!

Acheté pour dessiner avec des marqueurs permanents à l'alcool, ce papier convient parfaitement !Il est epais avec un grammage fin, voire très fin sur l'autre face: 2 grammages en 1, le tout dans des carnets de très bonne qualité.

This has quickly moved up to my favorite "practice" watercolor painting pad. Lets be real for a minute: watercolor paper is EXPENSIVE!!! So instead of using actual 140 lb WC paper every time I want to just play around with WC, Ill use this (guilt-free). I use it mainly to practice painting a certain flower or different styles of watercolor, for getting an idea of a painting I am wanting to do, or for trying out different color palettes, new colors, new brushes, different techniques, etc. I refuse to waste my REAL, high-quality, EXPENSIVE WC paper on this. I just want to reiterate this: This is NOT specifically made for watercolor painting, so if you're looking to apply layer after layer, puddle after puddle, this is NOT that type of paper. NOTE: the last photo I enclosed gives you an idea of this paper pad compared to Strathmore, hot pressed, 140 lb WC paper. The biggest difference (to me) is the WC dries MUCH faster & a bit differently. This pad will bleed colors through water but differently & less vigorously than real WC paper would (if that makes sense, its hard to explain). But it still remains my favorite to practice with.

I am updating my earlier review to 5 stars. I've recently tested a few other "Marker Papers" and always come back to this paper for it's quality, its thickness and it's color saturation. Marker users make sure to use the smooth side. This is NOT bleed proof, in fact, you get your best blending when the paper soaks up a bit of the base layer. I wouldn't recommend more than 3 color layers though as you could start to get some feathering. Otherwise, this paper is my go to everyday drawing and marker paper.
