Sketch pad

A sketch pad that fits in your pocket

At 110 x 165mm, this pad is smaller than a standard notebook, so it goes wherever you do. Keep it in your bag for sketching on the move, or on your desk for quick studies and ideas. With 80 sheets, there’s plenty of room to fill pages without worrying about wasting paper.

The 120gsm paper is heavier than ordinary notebook or printer paper, so it feels sturdy under the pencil and holds up to erasing, layering, and blending. It’s a good all-round weight for everyday drawing.

Tips for better results

1. Start with light pencil lines, then darken the ones you like. The paper handles light erasing well.
2. Rest your hand on a spare sheet to avoid smudging graphite and charcoal.
3. Place a sheet behind the page you’re working on if you’re using inks or markers, since they may show through.
4. Test pens on a corner of the page first to see how the ink behaves.
5. For loose pencil sketches, work in small thumbnails first, then pick the best for a larger drawing.
6. Date each page so you can see your progress over time.
