In order to meet the wide range of artists' needs, Stillman & Birn’s sketchbook system gives them the choice of paper weight, shade, and surface type best suited to their specific techniques. With both internal and surface sizing, our papers have exceptional wet strength that supports the application of multiple washes. Similarly, just as the paper's sizing slows down water absorption, pigment stays on the surface of the sheet. The result: remarkably glowing color!
The softbound covers are sewn-bound allowing flexibility while remaining durable. Rounded corners prevents frayed edges and gives each book an elegant finish.
