Perfect Sketch Pad for Artists and Creatives!
I couldn’t be happier with the Derwent A4 Portrait Sketch Pad—it’s quickly become my go-to for both drawing and writing. The 30 sheets of acid-free paper offer a smooth, even texture that handles pencil, charcoal, and ink beautifully, without bleed-through or feathering. The wire-bound spine is a thoughtful touch, allowing the pad to lay completely flat—ideal for detailed work or comfortable writing. The professional quality is immediately obvious, the paper feels substantial, and it adds an extra sense of pride to every piece I create. Highly recommend this for anyone serious about their sketching or journaling—it’s a fantastic canvas for creativity!

Derwent Sketch Pad A4 Portrait 30 Sheets
Good quality sketch pad for a beginner. A4 pages so plenty of space to practice. Texture and thickness are as expected for a basic sketch pad. Using this with pencils and it holds up well to rubbing out my many mistakes. Price point at time of purchase very reasonable. Satisifed customer.

It's a sketch pad. It does what it does.
It's a sketch pad, it pulls off as much graphite as you want it to. Not used it with pastels though.

Love this pad. Coloured pencil layers well and allows for careful use of eraser. Haven’t tried watercolour yet but I’m sure it will take light washes easily. Will purchase again

Excellent Quality for the Price
I’ve been using this sketch pad for both pencil and ink work, and I’m really pleased. The acid-free paper feels smooth yet has just enough tooth for clean lines. I like the wire binding because I can easily flip pages back while working outside. The pages are sturdy enough to handle light washes of watercolour, too, though they do warp a little if you go heavy on water. It’s become my go-to pad for everyday sketching and practice pieces. I’ll be picking up another one once I fill this one up.

This is the best sketch book in this price range although I bought this to draw with me derwent colourfast but this is wonderful for both coloured pencils, graphite and charcol pencils. The tooth of the paper is good, the paper is neither too smooth like ivory sheets nor too rough like watercolor papers it's just perfect. But the paper is a little thin than expected.
