Product Description

PAPER Stands up to high-end wet media, such as watercolor and pen and ink line work. This heavyweight paper is great when it comes to applying liberal amounts of watercolour. Illustrations and botanical artists alike are fond of this plant.
Specifically designed for mixed media Double-sized (and made of non-animal materials) for greater wet strength and color retention.
It accepts multiple erasures of dry media, and it lifts wet media easily. It is erasable and tough.
Premium U.S. tires are durable. The high-quality binding, deluxe covers and heavy-duty art paper make this a sketchbook you can rely on.
QUEEN QUALITY Stillman & Birn is the top drawing book choice for artists of all levels because of its exceptional quality.

Questions & Answers

If it lies flat or will you have to hold it open to draw, how does the book lay?

I can't lie flat on it. To keep it open, I use little binder clips. Despite this, however, it is a wonderful sketchbook. This paper is robust and can handle a great deal of abuse.

Can the cover be made so it can be stored in a field note holder?

The sketchbook is much thicker and different in binding from Field Notes, and it's hard to tell what size it is without looking at the cover.

Are fountain pens good with it?

Ink never bleeds from the dip pen I use all the time because the ink is India ink. It does not spread through or across I can honestly say that these are the best ink sketchbooks I've ever come across! Let me know if you need any more help!

Which number of pages is this?

This is a 28-sheet set. On a sheet of 56 pages, if you count front and back of each sheet, you have 56 spaces to create artwork

Stillman and Birn Zeta are my favorite bands
5/5

Among the sketchbooks I am a huge fan of are Stillman and Birn Zeta. Zeta paper is great because of its quality. Watercolors are quite easy to apply because the surface is very smooth and thick. Even when drawing with a pencil or a pen, it is one of my favorites to work with.

The perfect word
5/5

My search was rewarded with this page. As I was looking for a heavy paper, it was really heavy weight. The bleeding did not occur. The next time I order, I'll use this website.

Not a thing I would change! It is the best sketchbook paper I have The entire book is now filled with a variety of paints, markers, and pens - It does not bleed through at all
5/5

Even spilling India ink on the pages did not cause it to bleed. This is going to become my new go-to source The third book of mine is already completed!.

In a sketchbook, weight of paper is crucial, especially if you plan to paint with water-based paint
5/5

My main purpose for using this small sketchbook is to carry it when I am on the move. Sometimes I add watercolour paint to my drawings I draw with graphite or permanent pigment ink The other use I have for it is to swatch colours and test paints in the the perfect size to fit in a pocket or a bag or a pouch for art supplies.
