My boyfriend uses these in the field for plein aire. Yes, he even watercolors in them. He loves the 4x6 pocket size, and was thrilled to receive new ones as a gift.

These sketch books are well made and attractive. They make great journals, too, for those who like to write or keep diaries. Best value pricewise, too.

a nice book but I was expecting a smooth cover--i had wanted to paint the cover and the cobbled cover makes this difficult

Bought this to give my young daughter a place to draw pictures...without having numerous sheets of paper all over the house! Wonderful way to share her drawings with others when we go to gatherings.

I purchased this sketch book as a gift for a friend. I was very impressed with it when it arrived. For the price I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was. It's got an excellent cover and the paper is great quality. Very pleased with the purchase.

I've been using these books as journals for a number of years and I like the fact that the pages are heavy and writing does not show through to the other side. I love getting a bargain at Mr. Art.

My husband retired recently and took up drawing as a hobby. The versatility of this sketch book really pleased him. Thanks for keeping a retired husband busy and happy.

Excellent Sketch Book!

Rated by: Lyndsey N. in Grand Blanc, MI

I love this hard cover book! I just draw as a hobby, and this book is great to keep my drawings stored away in. Plus, I can take it anywhere without worrying that my drawings will get bent up. And they are a great price. Thanks!

This type of book is what most art teachers prefer for students. It is a value for the novice artist. The paper is perfect for charcoal and pencil drawings. It is also perfect to take on location, it is light enough to comfortably be taken in a carry-all or suitcase.
