ARCHES® Aquarelle travel journal sketchbooks are just the thing for globe-trotting artists:

They are easy to slip into a rucksack or suitcase, so that you never have to miss a chance to sketch a dream landscape, a face, an animal, a flower there and then while you are on the move.
The spiral binding means it opens completely to lie perfectly flat, allowing you to work in absolute comfort.
The thick board back cover of the sketchbook serves as a drawing board when there is no table or even surface to rest on. For example, it will keep the sheets flat even if you are working on your lap.
These sketchbooks can be used to create an album as a souvenir of your travels and also as a record of how your artistic technique is evolving.

Hot pressed paper is better suited to mixed media work, such as pencil, pastel or felt tip pen drawing combined with a light watercolour wash or watercolour combined with thin ink line drawings. There are any number of possibilities with so-called dry techniques. The paper’s very smooth surface lends itself beautifully to watercolour flat washes, but also to lovely fused effects. It is ideal for illustrations and all kinds of work with lots of detail requiring great precision.

About the Brand

ARCHES® offers the most extensive range of fine art papers made on a cylinder mould, maintaining a legacy of craftsmanship that dates back to 1492 when master papermakers began producing paper by hand in the Arches paper mill in the Vosges region of France. Today, it remains the only paper mill in France to manufacture all its fine art and printing papers using cylinder moulds. ARCHES® Aquarelle paper, gelatin sized “to the core,” is a benchmark in the industry, chosen by artists worldwide and uniquely made using this exclusive method. The cylinder mould process, combined with the use of natural cotton, results in exceptionally high-quality paper comparable to the finest handmade varieties. This traditional technique ensures luxury paper that is stable, watermarked, and features a natural grain and deckle edges.
