U.S. Art Supply 11 x 17 Artist Sketch Tote Board - Great for Classroom, Studio or Field Use

GREAT A+++

No bells or whistles, it doesnt have a power cord or led screen - but what it does do it does well - supports the paper I put on it while drawing caricatures and takes the pounding while my Ad Art Markettes sweep across the page rendering each new drawing! Bravo!

This had all the potential to be a five start review and would have been....except for a few of things. First was the packaging. There we two items in this package, which is fine, and the other item was okay. The board, in spite of an attempt at a clever support for one end, did not lay flat. That meant that the under side was mostly unsupported. So, when the large air bubbles were placed on top and the package closed it caused pressure on board, which accounted for the slight warping. I think that if I turn it over and keep my drawing box on it, that it should flatten out but time will tell on that one. The second concern is that the large red band has a 1/4 cut in the middle of it. At some point it will expand and snap. That is a QC issue that needs to be looked at. Update: Had to lower the rating as I forgot to mention that the clip is mounted unevenly and leaves gouges in you paper.

Perfect for those who love to lay in bed and draw. Big enough to place across your lap and feel sturdy. Great buy.

Ive been wanting one of these for a long time. I finally treated myself and got it during the horrid Covid summer. Love to draw outside and this board holds my paper so its not constantly being blown around. It is sturdy and I love the handle so i can just pick it up and go. Treat yourself....its worth it

Having a portable work surface like this is perfect for someone like me who does not have a dedicated desk.

Great quality/ good price.

I like the board. Its sturdy and portable. Unfortunately, mine came with the upper right corner missing. Since it was not in the box, Amazon shipped it that way. Next time I will buy elsewhere.

i enjoy this piece to make my watercolors portable but when i go to take masking tape off the pictures, the board starts to tear up too. otherwise i love it and it’s perfect for my needs

Ok for the price but is it too much to ask that the clip be mounted STRAIGHT! The have templates for that in manufacturing
