Strathmore 566-5 500 Series Hardbound Mixed Media Art Journal, 5.5 x 8.5, White, 32 Count

Beautiful drawing book.My son loves it! Great quality!

As with all Strathmore products, the quality is topline. I use it in my art classes. Very hard to damage. I has fallen a couple of times but the corners remain undamaged. Great value, I will buy again.

I actually gave this book to my daughter as a place to doodle and put her sticker but can say that it is a well constructed book and has good paper in it. Price was more than reasonable for this book.

I bought this book in hopes that it had good paper, and indeed this book has great paper for sketching, inking with indian ink and coloring with markers!

Artikel erfüllt meine Erwartungen

This is a 100% cotton journal from Strathmore. I haven’t used it yet, but I’m familiar with their papers, so I’m only going to speak on the paper quality. It’s perfect for my needs. Just lightly textured, smooth enough to use something like a Deleter pen on, and while not 300gsm, it’s heavy enough to withstand most art applications. (Alcohol markers will still bleed through). Also, that first page is just a protective barrier, so don’t freak out when you touch it. I wish they made 11x17 paper like this for ink wash work. -Nathyn Brendan Masters

This was a Christmas gift for my son. He has used this Strathmore STR-469-105 for a few years now, and really likes it for his sketching.

This art book is excellent for all types of media. I didnt believe it at first, i have bought many sketch books and never have found one so sturdy to paint, colored pencils, pens you name it. At first after using water color the page dried a little wrinkly i just put a heavy book on top and its flat and straight again. You can also use both sides of the pages they are so sturdy. Best art book you can buy if you enjoy all types of creations
