Stillman & Birn Nova Series Black Wirebound Sketchbook - 150gsm

Black paper changes the way colour and highlights work on the page. Nova gives light and opaque media a contrasting background, making it useful for gouache, coloured pencils, markers, gel pens and other media that show clearly on dark paper.

 

The wirebound format is practical for regular drawing and painting because the book can be opened flat while you work. The larger 7 × 10" and 9 × 12" formats also provide enough space for developed illustrations, studies and mixed media compositions.
