The Strathmore 469-8 STR-469-8 128 Sheet No 80 Toned Tan Art Journal is a high-quality art journal containing 128 sheets of 90 lb, 100% cotton cold press paper. It is suitable for watercolor, art journaling, sketching, and many other artistic mediums. The paper quality is excellent, presenting vibrant and accurate colors, but it can bleed slightly when markers are used. However, this paper carries a meaty smell which may be unpleasant to some. The cover of the Strathmore 469-8 STR-469-8 Art Journal is a deep shade of brown and is hardbound, which gives a professional look and protects the art created inside the journal. Many customers report that the journal does not lay flat when open. Instead, only one side can be worked on at a time. However, some buyers found the journal to be too thick to fold the pages flat, which can be difficult to navigate. On the whole, the Strathmore 469-8 STR-469-8 Art Journal is a perfect option for artists looking for a high-quality watercolor painting book without the added hassle of loose sheets of paper.
