Because I have been practicing capturing likenesses, I decided that I wanted a sketchbook for that alone. I've also been using wet mediums much more, so I needed a sketchbook that would allow for that. Wandering through my local art supply store, I found this Rendr sketchbook, which claims to have no show-through pages.
We all know that traditional sketchbooks cannot begin to claim that. Rendr achieves it!
Here's the sketch I did of Kelly MacDonald in gouache. The pages curl, but that can be remedied by just closing the book for a while. But does the paint show through?
No. Not at all! I'm impressed!
What other sketchbooks would you recommend for this type of work? Do you keep sketchbooks for separate subjects?
