The square sketchbook made for daily drawing. The Art Spectrum Bare Spiral Sketchbook 17 x 17cm holds 120 pages of 110gsm paper in a compact square, spiral bound so it folds right back while you draw.

Squares are having a moment, and for good reason. They frame a subject beautifully, and every page is already the perfect shape for sharing.

★ Art Shed Staff Tip
Start a one square a day challenge. Same book, same pen, a new subject every day. 120 pages gives you four months of drawing, and flicking through a book of squares at the end is incredibly satisfying.

Folds back on itself for drawing in hand.

We love a square for patterns, mandalas, botanical studies and small portraits. The format takes away the portrait or landscape decision and nudges you towards strong, centred compositions.

Spiral binding means the book folds flat or right back on itself, so you can draw on a lap, a train seat or the arm of the couch. Pair it with a fineliner and a few markers.

Why We Love the Bare Square

  • Perfect proportions. Square pages make composition easy.
  • 120 pages. Months of daily sketching in one book.
  • Spiral convenience. Folds back flat for drawing anywhere.
  • Share ready. Every drawing is already the right shape for social posts.

How We Use It

Rule a light pencil border on each page before you start for a framed, finished look. Use a waterproof pen if you plan to add coloured pencil or a light wash over the top.

Keep it simple: one pen, one pencil and the book. The less you carry, the more you draw.
