Sketchbook Fresh Szkicownik 197×124 mm, 72 sheets, 100 g/m², hardcover board

Fresh Szkicownik is a compact hardcover sketchbook sized 197×124 mm with 72 sheets of 100 g/m² paper. The board (tektura) cover provides a rigid backing that protects pages and makes drawing without a desk convenient. The medium-weight, slightly textured paper is designed to accept pencil, charcoal, ink and light washes, making this sketchbook suitable for fast studies, field sketches and mixed-media practice.

Advantages

The hardcover board cover ensures durability and a stable surface for sketching on the go. With 72 sheets of 100 g/m² paper, the pad balances thickness and portability: pages are substantial enough to limit show-through from dry media while keeping the overall sketchbook lightweight. The 197×124 mm format fits into backpacks and bags for plein air work and quick note-taking.

How to use

Open the sketchbook and use the rigid board cover as a stable drawing surface when working without an easel or table. For graphite and colored pencils, work directly on the paper; for charcoal, consider using a fixative if you need to preserve finished pages. When using ink or brush pens with light washes, test the paper on a corner page to check for absorption and buckling. Tear out or cut pages cleanly along the binding if you wish to remove finished works for presentation or scanning.

Usage recommendations

Store the sketchbook flat or upright in a dry place to prevent warping. For mixed-media work that includes heavier wet techniques, use light washes only and allow pages to dry fully before closing the book to minimize buckling and sticking. Use archival-safe pencils and inks if long-term preservation is required.
