Bought this first without thinking. Then thought, crap, what if I made a mistake. So I went round looking, saw this video (actually sat back and relaxed) and felt my anxiety ease away. Thank you for the review!
thank you. i have been wondering what these were like because the colourful covers are attractive and it is easier to remember what is in them rather than all black books.
i'm enjoying mine, half way through using it for botanicals, landscapes and abstract doodles, watercolour, inktense, water soluble graphite pencils, hard pastels, fountain pen ink, gouache, fine liners, coloured pencils, normal graphite sketches, brushpens.
This is great! I have a couple of sketchbooks like this which I was hoping to use for swatches, to have a small swatchbook by my painting area for quick lookups.
Wow! You created an amazing piece. This is one the cheapest sketchbook in europe. I would not advise it to a beginner for watercolor painting. You did a great because you know how to control water and how much paint you should use. I would say canson xl or montval great papers( 300 gsm) Any beginner might enjoys the result. They are inexpensive and made for watercolor. I use this sketchbook for Gouache, it works pretty good for quick sketches.
I have an illo sketchbook in the same size and I mostly sketch in it when I’m feeling depressed or sad and just scribble and honestly I’ve never finished a sketchbook but because it’s so small im halfway so I can’t wait to finish it
Hello Mister Niaz Hannan! Haaa.... I see that you have tasted the pleasure of working on a Royal Talens Art Creation Sketchbook, what an excellent idea! For my part, I use them a lot too! they have an excellent quality/price ratio and are very versatile. I like I also like being able to choose the format that I want (I have somes formats: i have Five sketchbook (2 Blue, 3 Yellow, 1 Pink Pastel and of 13 Cm on 21 Cm, One Big Sketchbook Blue of 21 Cm on 29.7 , and One Tiny sketchbook Pink of 12 Cm on 12 Cm ) ... Anyway, i love them! ha!ha!ha! I know they're not really designed for working with wet watercolor techniques, but I love doing them. I also noticed that these sketchbooks don't like inks as : Colorex, Herbin, Sennelier Inks and Alcohol Markers (it pierces the paper!) .... Apart from that, thank you very much for this very pleasant Artistic Video! Bravo! Kind Best Regards your,
This is soooo weird. I found these sketch books in a local shop where I live yesterday. Not seen them before. Not a great lover of cream paper. Prefer white. But maybe I might get one and see. Thanks Niaz very timely. Bx
I love them for sketching and I used them in the A5 size for the past 4 years, around 1 per year but I feel they fall apart with watercolor as you can only apply water once so it is not possible to do complex watercolor work with them. They are ultra cheap and really good quality so I keep buying them and still use watercolor with them ;-)
I bought this over 2 years ago and still haven't filled it. I did some watercolour paintings in it, but had to go easy on humidity. I prefer using it now to practise drawing or pencil value studies for paintings I then do on proper watercolour paper.
You're paintings are really beautiful to look at it. I have the sketchbook of the same size, I guess the brand is different. It's Menorah Creatif I guess. It's literally the best for watercolor paintings. I usually work on watercolor paintings and I travel a lot, so chose a sketchbook which would look handy like the one in the video.
But it did buckle... A lot! 2.23 while you were painting the sea and the beach. After drying it was still lightly buckled. Could you please mention what paper it is?
I used to draw/sketch in 9"x12" sketchbooks but I drew small things and left the rest of the page blank. I always felt like I was "wasting paper". So I switched to 3"x5" sketchbooks and filled the whole page. After this video I might have to step up to 5"x5" sketchbooks.
This is beautiful. I love the art creation sketchbooks, although I can’t do anything as amazing as this. But would have been an even better video without that fast paced musical choice. Stupid to complain about that. I mean it as constructive….your art, is absolutely beautiful.
@@niazhannanwatercolors congratulations 🎉 but you are not me as well as you are not of a lot of watercolorists who could feel limited by the paper quality. I think newspaper is better with inks isn't it. Also not any newspapers are good enough because some have their ink fusing badly with watercolor. With some papers it can be tricky and limited. In France supplies shops as well as on Amazon there is 250gsm square sketchbook : . Red Cover: Paint On, raw grain , white, . Cover Blue: Paint On white with grain, . Beige cover: natural Paint On, . Anthracite cover: Paint On grey, . Black cover: Paint On black. . Acid free . Excellent absorption capacity and possible repentance. . 32 sheets - 64 pages Good too know ! I was never disappointed with Clairefontaine.
Niaz Hannan Watercolors i use watercolors in my moleskines too. But I’m looking for a cheaper alternative for observational studies and i really don’t like sketching paper with a lot of tooth 😄
Niaz Hannan Watercolors Paper tooth refers to paper’s roughness. I don’t know where the name comes from 😄 Rough paper like pastel paper has a lot of tooth so the pigments stick better to the paper and allows more layers

😆sat back..
Am glad it helped
I wanted to buy this sketchbook, but I first wanted to see a review. Thank you so much, now I really want to buy it :))
Am glad this helped you understand the sketchbook!! Go for it its cute
i just ordered a 12 x 12 cm - yipee!
:) )
Same!!! It's so cute! I'll definitely order one.
Perfect sketchbook for my Micro Pocket Painter!
I have a few sketchbooks 4”x4” I just love them for carrying around or coming up with big ideas in a thumbnail kinda way.

Standing ovation for this beautiful painting
Thank you ☺️
I bought the exact same sketchbook (it’s same color too) at the minute I finished watching this video. This is how much I trust your opinion 😂😅
Woaw that is priceless..thank you so much🥰
Oh too smart. Small but two in one full page. Nice immediate painting.
Thanks! Yes its small yet useful
Certainly part of your mastery is your purposed absence of "detail"... It's really amazing!
Thank you!!
This is great! I have a couple of sketchbooks like this which I was hoping to use for swatches, to have a small swatchbook by my painting area for quick lookups.
Good idea
For swatches 140gsm is not enough. I recommend you 270gsm or 300
Excellent and loved your painting❤️
It's a very cute sketchbook.. definitely I will buy.🤗
Thanku 🥰 you must buy one its lovely. Just like you are😘
This sketchbook seems perfect for me
Yes it is very useful..specially for its size!

I loved your painting, thank you! I recently bought a tiny sketchbook but wasn’t quite sure what to do with it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you ☺️
Can’t wait to get mine. My sketchbook is too big for my bag…. and this little sketchbook was cheaper than a bigger bag.
Yeaaah!!

Have you bought it yet or are you still waiting? 😂
Sorry but I came across your comment and I just couldn't resist 😅

Khub sundor ❤
Henn..sotti to?
Simply Outstanding 😎
😊🙏
are you drying at any point during the painting?
Yes after the first layer
Simple and beautiful. Amazing!😍
🥰
You're paintings are really beautiful to look at it. I have the sketchbook of the same size, I guess the brand is different. It's Menorah Creatif I guess.

Wow.. So cool.. Loved it! ❤❤
Thanks kaka🥰 where were you all these days! I missed your comments
Saw the review... Bought it, thx!
😇
But it did buckle... A lot! 2.23 while you were painting the sea and the beach. After drying it was still lightly buckled.
Could you please mention what paper it is?
Obviously it buckles coz its not watercolor paper(every paper does that atleast a bit)..its cartridge paper
Bro this sketchbook cost around 400rs , but i bought a 140gsm sketchbook a5 for 150rs
😳
Amazing, I love your art work and your video 's editing skills.
Thanks 🥰
I was thinking of buying this sketchbook🥰🥰Is the paper smooth?
Yes its smooth as its cartridge paper
I'm thinkig of buying a smaller sketchbook. This video helped me, actually but gotta say, 0:24
Can i use the both sides of a sketchbook which has only 140gsm? Doesn't that destroy the page?
Yes you can..it doesn't bleed on the other side
I used to draw/sketch in 9"x12" sketchbooks but I drew small things and left the rest of the page blank. I always felt like I was "wasting paper". So I switched to 3"x5" sketchbooks and filled the whole page. After this video I might have to step up to 5"x5" sketchbooks.
What did you do with the unused paper?
This is beautiful. I love the art creation sketchbooks, although I can’t do anything as amazing as this. But would have been an even better video without that fast paced musical choice. Stupid to complain about that. I mean it as constructive….your art, is absolutely beautiful.
Excellent review. Now I can buy it. Thank you
Oh it does come in different sizes.
Am glad this helped you make a decision 😇
@@niazhannanwatercolors - It did. Bless you
Out of curiosity. Have used acrylic paint in it?
I found some yesterday and they come in all the normal sizes landscape and portrait too
@@bixnash1 Thank you very much.
Hey do know why it has 2 types of texture on alternate pages?
Nope!
love ur videos, so nice ty
Thank you ☺️
My fav skethbook
Same here 😉
Aighy, imma buy it
Go go go 🚶♂️
@@niazhannanwatercolors i just did 😆
I don't like 140gsm for watercolour painting even though with light layers the paper is quickly wavy when wet. Better for dry or oily pencils.
But i feel i can paint on any paper even on newspapers!

They are lovely to use. They might be student grade. I have a pan set and some tubes
