Customers'Testimonials
Stories from real people, real artists. Read what they have to say about our fine art tools, designed by artists, for artists.
I've really enjoyed this sketchbook over the last few months. I've been using it for line drawings and Zentangles as the thickness and smoothness of the paper lends itself nicely to that task. I love the cover material much more than a traditional leather or paper cover, it's sturdy and wipes off easily. The sheets are thick enough, but a bit thicker like 165gsm would be nice too.
I took an art class in college a long time ago and loved it. Now, I am 50 and want to start playing around with art again. I was looking for a smaller sketchbook. It's perfect! The softcover is quite flexible and durable, not to mention attractive. I find I don't mind that it's not a hardcover. This is comfortable to sketch in, and portable enough to take with me on travels. The best part is the quality of the paper! Just wow! Great value!
Have been using this sketchbook for 7 months now. As an artist, I go through lots and lots of journals- paint in them, sketch, glue photos, etc. This journal is so so durable and great for the price, protects all my pages and the quality of paper is great...will be purchasing again :)

Frequently Asked Questions
Good question! Our sketchbooks are designed by artists for artists. Each sketchbook is meticulously handcrafted using recyclable materials, folded, hand-stitched, and glued together to form a hard-wearing notebook with a scratch-resistant wipeable cover and 180° lay-flat spine that stays open so you can work at ease. You can customize the cover and inner end-pages using acrylic paint or markers. The stylish design with the edge printing is very attractive and can be used as is or colored with your watercolors to create a unique pattern. There's a maximum possibility to express yourself with this neutral stylish design.
Our smooth 120 gsm acid-free paper is of archival quality and can withstand lots of sketching, erasing, sticking and re-attaching with sellotape or washi tape. Each sketchbook has 160 pages or 80 sheets of blank light ivory paper that is kind to your eyes, and won't reflect light to your eyes in the way ordinary white paper might.
Acid-free means that the pH level of the paper is 7.0 (neutral) or higher (alkaline). In general, acid-free papers are expected to last for decades under normal storage conditions. Don't worry; it's still biodegradable.
Our sketchbooks are encased in a durable engineered leather cover that is scratch-resistant, protecting your work from elements. You can easily customize the cover using acrylic paint or markers and make it truly your own.
It depends on your needs. If you plan on bringing the sketchbook around, while travelling, during the daily commute or to capture urban scenes on the go then opt for a B6 (5x7 inches) that you can easily fit in your purse. If you intend to work on a table at home or in your studio where you can sketch with your sketchbook laid flat, or if you tend to create bigger artwork, then we recommend you get a B5 (7x10 inches).
However, most of our customers find B5 very compact and ‘just right' size for carrying it around, too.
Our sketchbooks are perfect for sketching, art journaling and keeping your creative ideas & notes! The acid-free paper is durable enough for light watercolours, ink, markers, glue and sticky tapes for collages, rough erasing and shading. Your options are endless. You can also check for some sketchbook ideas .
We only want you to find the best fine art tools that you will enjoy using. If that's not us, don't fret. We offer a 1-year guarantee and 100% money-back for 60 days.

Customer Reviews
Love this sketchbook, travel sized, lightweight. Paper is ideal for sketching in multimedias. I keep buying it over and over. Fantastic purchase!
I tested the paper with graphite, ink, pastels, charcoal, watercolor pencils, and light watercolor washes. Any washes are horrible and paper buckles. Even when I just use graphite pencils or colored pencils it leaves a transfer to the facing page! So useless to use both sides. I have used all these different materials on other paper and is excellent and shutting and throwing main my art bag still no transfer. It doesn’t stand up to the claim. I bought two tablets. I hate Messing with returns so will keep them but there it is, ??!
Thank you for a very useful review. It reviews such as yours that really help us understand what our customers love about our products but also where we might improve. We love this B6 Sketchbook and as a family-owned and operated business, we do strive to supply the highest quality products whilst remaining cost-sensitive.
Please be informed that all graphite pencils, colored pencils/watercolor pencils, charcoal will leave a transfer on the opposite page. It's the nature of those mediums which also allows them to be erasable while using them.
To avoid this transfer, make sure your work is finished and spray it with a fixative to set it in place.
I hope this will help and if there's anything you need in the meantime, please let us know.
Excellent sketchbook, jotting down notes, sketching with different materials, excellent quality.
We can't thank you enough for the kind words about our Sketchbook. - Ryan
lovely quality. handy size. carry in handbag
Good quality paper. I like the flat opening pages which allow you to sketch across two pages easily
I love the quality of the pages and binding, the dual bookmark ribbons, and the closure Elastic. I personally find the texture of the cover unpleasant and I'm it will warp if got at all wet. I wish the cover was cloth or coated in some way instead of also made of paper. But, this is a small grip. Overall, I love this notebook and will purchase again.

Ordered this sketchbook, and no regrets. I've never heard of Zen art products before, but I wanted to try a new type of multimedia sketchbook. I think it's very good in holding the way I sketch with watercolor and pen. I tend to carry my sketchbook with me all the time. The size is perfect for outdoor sketching - not too big and not too small. The sketch book ove all seem durable and the papers are thick enough to hold light washes. I'd recommend it for daily sketch use and/or travel sketches. -Eisen
Thank u
