Jumbo Square & Chunky Black Cloth Sketchbook - 25 X 25 cm - 140 GSM All-Media Cartridge White Paper - 95 Square Sheets Ideal for Pencils, Pens, Light Washes

This book is great for pen & ink and even watercolor. It takes and releases masking fluid like a champ, and very few paints/inks I have tried so far have bled through. I love this sketchbook! The paper is bright white and looks stunning when paired with a really dark black ink, like Sailors.

So many pages!! Easy to work with!! Sturdy.... get them while you can because they dont stay in stock long..!! love, love, love..!!

Havent tried this with wet media yet, but so far Im happy with the smoothness of the paper, its weight. The book is well-bound and sturdy.

Came damaged

Excellent quality pages and binding.

Great journal to keep track of your progress... I love these journals. They went up in price a little recently, but I will probably still purchase as there is nothing on the market that quite compares..!!

I am fairly new to keeping a sketchbook, but I was looking for something that had paper suitable for a variety of media and that came in a larger format. Seawhite and Brightons sketchbooks do just that. I love the ten inch square format- it gives me much more freedom than A5 sketchbooks that seem to be so widely available. The book is sturdy and well made- the pages are bright white with a slight tooth ( which I really like- not as slick as moleskine)- and it stays pretty close to completely flat when opened. So far the paper has been great with pens, brush markers, and watercolor that I typically use. The paper buckles slightly with the watercolor and only slight ghosting is visible with the brush markers. The company was very kind and prompt when I asked questions about them sticking their watercolor sketchbooks on Amazon- we might be seeing those soon! I ordered their A3 sketchbook and it arrives today along with the starter staples A4 sketchbooks- so excited. Im thrilled about the A3 size and hope that they stock the case bound book soon too! Im already a big fan. I will try to post pictures that show how the paper performs.

This (nearly) 10x10 sketchbook is my SUPER FAVE book. The paper is sturdy enough for mixed media, and its sewn in. And its a fat 190 pages. Im coming back to this one for my new sketchbook - and I have another one I work in for extra paint experiments in the home studio. Ive gone through 4 jumbo square books already, and 2 or 3 midsized books, and one small one. I alternate with other sizes and brands for variety, but this is still my fave. From other reviews people have mentioned that ink will bleed through the paper some - I can confirm this is true, but I tend to like that effect so it doesnt bother me at all - and I love the fact that there are so many pages while still maintaining enough sturdiness to paint and collage on. Repeated watery media not recommended. Super good!

I am delighted to have discovered this sketchbook! Its great for mixed media.

Prompt shipping, and the product is adequate. Sturdy binding, nice feel, and the tooth of the paper is really smooth. Ink doesnt feather on the paper. It is, however, a little bit on the thin side, so Id recommend putting a stronger paper behind the page youre working on if you dont want markers to bleed through to two fresh pages. Otherwise, its my favorite sketchbook.
