This Concertina Sketchbook is popular as an art journal, photo book, narrative sketchbook, travelogue or swatch book. With heavyweight cartridge pages, it's ideal for artists working in wet or dry media including watercolour and pencil. Use and view page by page, or extend to their impressive full width. Now available in 2 sizes; save 10% when you buy both!
Although it's portable and compact, your sketchbook extends to over 1 metre when fully opened! It has 12 x pages of heavyweight 200gsm fine grain cartridge paper. This acid-free paper is suitable for all dry medium artwork, as well as light watercolour, gouache, acrylic and ink. Available in A6 small or A5 medium sizes, both portrait format.
The sketchbook's cartridge pages are hand stitched through the cover in Olive* waxed linen thread. The sturdy paperback covers are made from tactile handmade cotton rag paper, with turn-ins to keep the pages safely folded up for travel or archiving. Why not decorate the covers with your own artwork to truly personalise your sketchbook?
There are two joins on the reverse of the pages made with transparent archival hinging tape and you should be able to work over these in your preferred medium.
A6 small portrait: 15 x 11 cm, extends to 1 metre 26 cm
A5 medium portrait: 21 x 15 cm, extends to 1 metre 78 cm

Can be made with a smaller or larger number of pages, do get in touch to enquire about a bespoke version. Artist Jeremy Hastings used just such a bespoke Concertina Sketchbook in his documentary series 'Where Are You Going? / Ku po shkon?' which recorded his 20 day walk across Albania and Macedonia (final image, with kind permission and Copyright Jeremy Hastings, 2019).
