Seawhite A5 Octopus Book, 8 Extending Concertina arms, 220gsm Cartridge Paper (32 Leaves)

Amazing idea. I wanted to group and display similar artworks and this beautifully made book lets me display and then put away my artwork rather than have it stuck in a folder. I love the fact that it holds so many sheets of high quality paper. I know I could make my own but this hardback book means I don't have to, It could be used for writing, photos, anything really. Could also be used to work into directly as a travel journal.

Lovely hard back books with quality paper. Good price.

Beautiful quality product.

I'm pleased with this sketchbook. I have other Seawhite versions and they're always good quality. The hard covers are secure and well made, the paper quality is very good and I love the 'octopus' expanding pages which are ideal for landscapes or just extending sketches or painting. The paper takes ink pen, charcoal, pastels etc easily. I've used water colour, it buckles a little bit that's no problem as I'm using this book for out and about, the whole point is that it will get all sorts thrown at it. Oil pastels work well, ditto acrylic. Great value! I'm happy to recommend and will buy again. Thanks for reading, I hope you find this review helpful.

Really nice size and quite quirky how the pages unfold for the opportunity to do really wide continuous content if you wish. I bought this by accident, thinking it was the smaller concertina one, and I was happily surprised. The paper is good, quite substantial not fabulous but good enough to produce a nice travel journal.

Good size and quality. Just received it today and its perfect for what I need it for! Do however wish you didn't have to pay like 5 quid delivery for a basic delivery. Only small issue is that the first and large pages rub on the black cover and leave like a pencil type mark on the edge of the page

Item as expected

I'm such a big fan of these! I'm currently working through Nicolaides 'The Natural Way To Draw' exercises and these octopus pads are really great for practicing rambling gesture and contour drawing that spill over page edges. The paper's great for ink drawing, it's just rough enough for that satisfying scratchy texture :) If you've not used an octopus pad before I'd recommend trying it!

Parfait pour voyager et dessiner et peindre sans perdre ses feuilles

This is one of the coolest sketch books I have ever seen. The papedr is very thick and has a great texture for watercolor. Now that I have it, I am busy trying to think of what kinds of creative ways I can fill it up!

はじめて出会ったオクトパススケッチブック。どのように使うかーワクワクします。 このかたちとのコラボレーションを楽しみたいと思います。

Lovely sketchbook.

Großartig. Ich liebe es.
