Greater than one weekUnlike most of the Visual Journal series which are 300 series paper, this Mixed Media paper is Series 500—100% cotton. It works great for pen & ink, pen & watercolor, pencil and pastel. Great price for a good quality paper.

Greater than one weekAbsolutely gorgeous paper - lovely and smooth. I have used it for a pencil portrait and the lovely finish of the paper helped me immensely. A very generous amount of sheets, as well - gret value for money.

Greater than one weekI am in love with this journal! I bought both the Bristol Board (Smooth) and Mixed Media (Vellum), and so far have only tried the Bristol Board. I am wildly impressed! The paper is THICK — like a very heavy card stock (100 lb. basis weight - 260 grams/square meter). There is NO show-through (I can only see from the other side if I hold the paper up to a light source.) Ive been using Pigma Microns, and it feels like this paper and the pens were made for each other. For the price, I cannot imagine a better deal. Also, in case you were wondering, the cheesy cover page is meant to be torn off. The real cover (both front and back) is very thick and sturdy cardboard, shiny brown with a printed pebble effect. I have found my ideal journal! I plan to try out all the different paper types eventually, along with the smaller size, which looks great for bringing with you anywhere.

> 3 dayThis is my second Strathmore journal. The paper is very good quality and takes watercolour and water-colour pencil well. I like the size as it is neither too small to allow for street scenes, fields etc nor too big to be ungainly to transport.

Greater than one weekThis journal was a great buy. There is actual, good quality drawing paper in it. All of my pencils and pens work well on the paper, and do not bleed through. My only complaint is that I wish the cover pages were a smidge bit bigger. Dont get me wrong, they cover the paper, but only if all of the pages are lined up exactly.

> 3 dayI love this journal. The paper is textured just as I wanted for watercolor. The journal is a perfect size to carry. The spiral binding is wonderful because it will lie flat, not flip around and allows for working on the entire page. My favorite watercolor journal and I have used a bunch.
