Moleskine’s Art Collection Watercolor Album Review

Diazee here! In this video I share an in-depth review of my experience with Moleskine’s watercolor sketchbook. My hope is to help you find a better understanding whether this art material is for you.

Moleskine in general has never seemed worth the price, at least not for their art range. That said I have yet to find a watercolor sketchbook I love. Well, I did, but it’s been discontinued. I used to use the strathmore 500 series travel sketchbook, which had 100% cotton paper, but they had some manufacturing problems and opted to scrap the range. Boo! I’ve used the 400 series watercolor sketchbook, but the texture is too uniform for my taste. I just broke into a Viviva sketchbook, but I’m still on the first page so no real review yet.

thnxx for your thoughtful comment, darling! Yes, I noticed a decline in quality of their other series as well. Maybe they will improve on that paper quality for their watercolor album, but I think it's time to look elsewhere, for sure. What a bummer that the Strathmore 500 series travel sketchbook has been discontinued. I haven't tried the Viviva, but I see that they have a sketchbook with 140lb 100% cotton, cold press pages (I'm guessing that's that one?). It sounds promising., I'll check it out! In the meantime, I am using the Etchr Lab sketchbooks. I broke into the cold press and it's absolutely lovely so far. I have yet to break into the cold press. Worth checking out! & I will be reviewing these in the future. Much Love, darling! xx
