★ Art Shed Staff Tip
Treat each spread like a mini project board. Put the main drawing on the right, and use the left page for thumbnails, colour notes, swatches and scribbled thoughts. Teachers and clients love seeing the thinking, not just the final drawing.

The toothy 110gsm cartridge takes pencil, fineliner, coloured pencil and markers. Explore our full visual diaries range if you need a different cover or page count.

Why We Recommend the A4

  • Folio friendly. A4 lines up with printouts, worksheets and display folders.
  • Room to annotate. Space for drawings and notes on the same spread.
  • Dry media ready. Toothy cartridge for pencil, pen and coloured pencil.
  • Acid free and FSC. Responsibly sourced paper that keeps your work looking good.

How We Use It

Glue in references with a glue stick rather than wet glue, which can cockle 110gsm paper. Keep a page at the front as a contents list, and number your pages as you go so it is easy to find work later.
