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

Love❤️

I like this book. It has a weird smell though. Thats the one thing I dont like about it. The paper is different for me and it absorbs watercolour paint. This is different from cheaper paper where the water just sits on top. It will take some getting used to but honestly i really like this book. I can use all my materials in it. I wish i could have afforded to purchase more than one at a time!

My favorite store bought journal for when I dont want to make my on.

I am very satisfied with this item. I had ordered after being in Hobby Lobby and getting to handle the book. I always check Amazon for a lower price since I am a Prime member and it definitely worked out in my benefit! This item was significantly less than in the store.

So very pleased with this 500 series Strathmore sketchbook. Wonderful for pencil, watercolor, and markers. The 100% cotton makes a difference in the artistic process, and Strathmore has made a wonderful paper. I would definitely purchase this paper in the future.

Pages are textured and thick. I will definitely buy another one when I fill up my current one. Pages will warp slightly when I use watercolor, but not a big deal.

This product is very reasonably priced considering it’s quality!

Beautiful sketch book shame it doesn’t have tear marks inside the pages.

I absolutely love Strathmore products and this one is no different. The paper is smooth and easy to blend on. It is a large sketchbook and great for drawing portraits and landscapes. Would highly recommend.

Great
