FAQs About Sketchbooks & Pads

Choose sketchbook size based on your preferences and intended use. Smaller sizes (A5) are portable, while larger sizes (A3) provide more space for detailed artwork.

For pencil sketches, a medium-textured paper like 190-250gsm works well. Heavier papers (300gsm+) are ideal for wet media such as ink or watercolour.

Sketchbooks have hard covers, offering protection and portability. Pads are typically loose sheets and better for large works or when paper choice is crucial.

Yes, but be sure to select a sketchbook with thicker, watercolour-appropriate paper (270gsm+). For light watercolour use, look for pads labelled "mixed media".

Store sketchbooks flat to avoid warping. Keep them in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight to prevent fading, and protect them with a cover or box if necessary.

Yes, sketchbooks can be used for finished pieces, especially if they’re bound with quality paper. For display purposes, ensure the paper suits your medium (e.g., ink, watercolour).
