Versatile, Durable Sketchbooks for Mixed Techniques and Everyday Use
Stillman & Birn Alpha Series Sketchbooks are a favorite among artists for their reliability, strength, and versatility. Featuring 100 lb. (150 gsm) white paper with a medium grain surface, these sketchbooks are built to handle a wide range of media—from dry tools like graphite and charcoal to ink and light washes.
The heavyweight paper allows for confident use of wet media on both sides of the page, while the medium texture offers just enough tooth for smooth blending and expressive mark-making. Available in hardcover and spiral-bound formats, Alpha sketchbooks are designed to lay flat for ease of use and scanning, with durable sewn bindings that hold up over time.
