Moleskine 21 X 29 Cm Art Collection Watercolour Album - Black

A moleskine is a moleskine! Don't need to say anything more about the quality and finish. One rant though - the pages themselves could be a bit thicker for better handling with watercolours.

Me encanta Moleskine: sus cuadernos, agendas (la del principito me encanta) y los Moleskine Art: Tengo varios de distintos tamaños y gramajes, dependiendo para qué se vaya a utilizar: Para acuarela es mejor el Watercolour Block de 300 gramos, el que he comprado tamaño A4 tiene un gramaje de 200 gramos que sirve para acuarela, pero cuidado con el agua. Me encanta también Sketch Album porque tiene una textura muy suave y lo utilizo para otras técnicas o medios (lápices de colores y grafito).

Excellent produit comme d'habitude. Finition parfaite. Papier de qualité. L'ouverture "plate" permet de passer le carnet au photocopieur sans souci et est très fonctionnelle à l'usage sur le motif. Nombre de pages idéal pour moi, ni trop ni trop peu... ce qui offre un poids très raisonnable dans le sac à dos, et est un avantage pour ce format par rapport aux autres marques. Semble assez cher à l'achat mais le prix est justifié par sa qualité et sa fonctionnalité. J'adore.

Second time buyer, good size and I love the elastic close that comes with.

The hardcover, the A4 size and the great quality of the paper in this book make it an excellent watercolour journal. I can't wait to start filling it up with paintings of my favourite things and sketch plans for future larger works. The paper is really quite smooth which lends itself to drawing with an HB or H pencil and pen and ink and colour washes. It's a high-grade paper which is heavy enough to take a lot of water without buckling too much. I'm delighted with the product. I urge the makers to continue production.

I love Moleskine watercolor sketchbooks. They'rte my go-to sketchbook as they take both pen & watercolor beautifully. I can use both sides of the paper with no bleed through no matter what pen I used. In fact, several layouts had a black background that I colored in using dark black ink and there was no "ghosting" on the reverse page. Best Sketchbook for watercolor out there. In fact, I've used pencil, pen, ink, watercolor, neocolor ll, acrylic pens, sharpies etc with no problem. The thickness allows me to through serious washes at each page and still get very little buckling at all.
