Review: I’ve been drawing almost exclusively in sketchbooks for the better part of the last 8+ years, earlier this year i decided to try out this sketchbook and it has honestly been one of the best sketchbooks i’ve ever bought, the paper is extremely smooth without being slippery, the cover is durable with a nice thickness, the elastic holding it closed is extremely strong, i find it easy to travel with wether you’re taking it on a plane or just on a quick roadtrip, and the overall size of the sketchbook is extremely nice and i enjoy being able to draw on both sides of the same piece of paper without having marks, indents, and marker bleed, showing through. As for the materials you can use on it i find that pencils, colored pencils, ink, and paint/paint pens are extremely pleasing to uses on the paper but other materials also work extremely well. Overall an amazing sketchbook for any kind of artist i highly recommend!!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the paper acid-free?**
A: Our paper is not acid-free.

**Q: What use is this sketchbook if the paper is not acid-free?  Nobody has a use for a self-destructing product....**
A: Thanks for your question. If you need acid-free paper there are a lot of other options out there. We created a premium sketchbook that is affordable. Our paper is not acid-free.
Have a good one :)

**Q: Does anyone know how the illo sketchbook compares to the Pentalic?  I would want to put watercolor washes on it.  I realize it is not 100% cotton rag.**
A: Not familiar with Pentalic. This is the best sketchbook ive found for the price. I loved it so much, i bought 3. I dont know how picky you are about the watercolor but ive used heavy ink washes and it wont bleed through to the other side of the paper. Looked like it might warp with heavy water, no worries, let it dry and close the book, straightened right out. Like i said, im super happy with mine. I use ink in brush pens, ink washes, copic markers and acryllic paint. This book does it all. Very good quality mixed medium paper. Comparable to moleskine. Havnt used traditional watercolor but the ink is really harsh. I think it will do fine with watercolor. The book lays flat so you can paint across both pages. Plus I really like supporting small business. I follow these guys on instagram and there are comments all over their page. Very positive feedback.

**Q: where is it made?**
A: Made in China | Based in Detroit

*by T***Z on 3 January 2026*

Great sketchbook. The paper is very smooth and takes marker, colored pencil, graphite, and pens really well. Alcohol marker bleed-through is there but it’s not too bad, as compared to other papers such as Moleskine. The size and quality are great. This sketchbook gets me really excited to make art.
