Derivan Concertina Style Sketchbook

These Concertina style sketchbooks allow you to create a dynamic storybook piece with your illustrations, text and collage. Span and connect your ideas in one continuous format rather than separate sections or record a landscape, cityscape or seascape in one panoramic view.

Perfect for depicting long panoramic views, story board-like sequences, a project or fashion design portfolio, architectural lay-outs, or as a photo and presentation album.
These sketchbooks are suitable for all drawing (pencil, charcoal, pastels, markers) and water-based media (ink, watercolour, gouache) and it features one long sheet of paper folded into 18 workable pages.

The thick paper (watercolour medium surface texture, 350gsm) in these sketchbooks is suitable for wet media as it is more resistant to distortion and buckling when compared to thinner stock, and is also less likely to allow the artwork to bleed through to the other side of the paper.

Each sketchbook features an elastic strap to keep the concertina pages compacted and secured when not in use and has the Derivan logo discreetly embossed on the front cover.

Before I bought this sketchbook (in both A5 and A6 size) I did a lot of comparison across the brands available at numerous art supply stores and this is definitely one of the best-priced concertina sketchbooks available out there especially when you factor in size. The concertina format is great for when you want the option to create wide panoramic pictures and I think that it's also a great format for when you want to do a "themed" sketchbook / artist's book.

I normally make my own accordion sketchbooks with mixed media paper. However this sketchbook is made with cold press watercolor paper. I wanted a sketchbook that would take more watercolor than mixed media. The sketchbook is not too big 8 pages on the front including the inside covers and six pages on the back. The black linen cover with elastic to hold the pages in place is perfect. The price is good considering the quality work that has been put into the construction of the sketchbook.
