Quality satchel-sized very cute sketchbook
5 Stars
Quality satchel-sized very cute sketchbook
Moleskine Hard Red for Art would be a decent sketchbook for those who want something that could easily fit into a satchel and has surface that is smoother and more rigid than stereotypical sketchbook paper. It is also pretty cute. If you are looking for something larger than pocket-sized but not as large as a letter-sized notebook, and willing to pay some extra bucks for quality, try this one.Some notes:1. Paper thickness: Somewhere in between that of stereotypical sketchbook and Bristol board.\2. Paper texture: Pretty smooth.3. Color of the surface: Although not well shown in photos, it is actually faint green tea. If you want a surface that is white, then this may not be it.4. Using fountain pen: The photo that I have uploaded contains two pages using fountain pen. Because of the paper's thickness, doodles and writings from the previous page does not bleed through. Also, because the surface is pretty smooth, it provides an excellent surface for fountain pen.5. Other instruments/media I plan on testing in the future: Dipping pen and brushes with India ink, colored markers and pencils, watercolor and acrylic paints.******Update: 04/18/20121. The faint green tea color of the sketchbook surface ... watch out: Be very careful with eraser. Rubbing the surface will fade out the color and reveal a white surface. So, if you expect to use eraser on a regular basis, look for a different sketchbook.2. Applying acrylic ink and painting: The sketchbook page being worked on will warp, if acrylic ink and painting are used liberally. (Extrapolation based on my experience with acrylics: The same problem will be encountered by applying watercolor.) This is not a big deal, if you are using this sketchbook to experiment and to play around. However, if you want to do polished works using acrylics, look for something heavier.

This is my second moleskin sketchbook and the first one lasted me a year. This one is more flashy so it’ll force me to draw more often. I mostly draw with blue ballpoint pens and it works really well for me!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Moleskines are the best!
Reviewed in Singapore on July 9, 2020
I've been using Moleskines for notes and some writing for almost a decade, and I simply love the quality. Currently I'm on a new project that requires lots of sketching, and the Art series is just perfect as it has a thicker paper than the Classic series. It even handles light watercolor painting quite well. The hard cover also gives that feeling of something more perpetual which is nice (artists will understand...).
Overall it is a great product!
