Canson XL Series Mix Paper Pad, Heavyweight, Fine Texture, Heavy Sizing for Wet or Dry Media, Side Wire Bound, 98 Pound, 5.5 x 8.5 in, 60 Sheets, 5.5X8.5

I got this for my kid and they LOVE it. They said it works well with their alcohol-based markers and didn’t bleed much. Super big and perfect.

Perfect

This is my favorite for sketching, watercolors, and painting. A heavy duty paper for a lot of different medias.

The pages are thick and sturdy. I use it to practice painting. I use acrylic paint. I used to buy canvas, but this is affordable and really good for beginners.

I love these sketchbooks.

It was in very good condition! I was very happy !

Now this is the beloved begginer sketchbook! It works fine, but the paper is hard to work with at times and buckles fast. I’d suggest investing into Strathmore Mixed- Media sketchbooks, when value a bit higher, but work really well.

Durable thick drawing paper. It takes your drawings to a different level.

Nicer than what I expected.

I give it a 4 because my students use them constantly and periodically the spirals come too loose allowing the pages to come free. It can be fixed w patience but is a bother. However the paper is great. My students paint, glue, use markers.
