The everyday workhorse. The Art Spectrum Bare Spiral Sketchbook A4 gives you 120 pages of 110gsm paper at the classic A4 size, spiral bound so it lies open on the desk or folds back in your hand.

This is the book for practice, planning and play. The pages you are allowed to mess up, so the good stuff can happen.

★ Art Shed Staff Tip
Treat it as your practice book. Copy a master drawing, fill a page with hands, or draw the same object ten times in a row. Practice pages are where skills grow, and a plain A4 spiral takes the pressure off.

Every artist needs a no pressure sketchbook alongside the good one. We use an A4 spiral for warm ups, thumbnails and working out problems before committing to a final piece on better paper.

It is also a great pick for students who need plenty of pages for class exercises. Pair it with a good set of graphite pencils from our drawing supplies and some charcoal pencils for tonal studies.

Why We Recommend the Bare A4

  • Standard A4 size. Fits folders, bags and school work.
  • 120 pages. Plenty of space for practice and experiments.
  • Spiral binding. Lies open on the desk without fighting you.
  • Low pressure. A sketchbook you can fill without overthinking.

How We Use It

Fill the left pages with warm ups and the right pages with your best attempt. Date each spread, and in a few months you will see exactly how far you have come.

When an idea is ready, move it onto a heavier paper from our sketchpads range.
