Ohuhu 8.3"x8.3" Mix Media Pad Art Sketchbook 78 Sheets for Painting Drawing

High quality book, the paper is thick and I haven't had any issues with bleeding so far. It seems to take multiple different types of medium well and holds up even to watercolor paint. The included plastic sheet is convenient to make sure there's no bleedthrough when using markers, etc. Good quality for the price!

I have DOZENS of different sketchbooks because I am very, VERY picky when it comes to sketchbooks. I have so many where I just do a few pages and abandon them. I was afraid to try the Ohuhu sketchbooks since they’re a bit pricey, but no more so than something like a Strathmore Mixed Media, and definitely cheaper than something like an Etchr. Since I absolutely LOVE Ohuhu markers, I decided to take a chance. I’m only about 10 pages into this one and already ordered another one! BEST mixed media sketchbook I’ve tried so far! Look, you’re never going to find a “perfect” mixed media sketchbook, because different media will work differently on different papers. It’s extremely unlikely that any company will invent a paper that can work equally well with alcohol markers, water-based markers, pencil, charcoal, watercolor, acrylic, gouache, etc. But this is the closest I’ve ever found. It has a nice tooth that takes graphite and colored pencil well. Alcohol markers blend nicely on it with minimal patchiness. Water-based markers are slightly streaky, but they are on nearly any paper. It can handle wet media fairly well because the paper is pretty thick. You can’t use a TON of water on it without it warping, but it handles light washes like a champ and medium washes with just slight warping. Same for gouache. Watercolor pencils work BRILLIANTLY on it. Paint markers like Posca and Arrtx don’t pill the paper and look smooth on it. I will still keep trying different sketchbooks because I enjoy doing so, but this one is HANDS DOWN the best one I’ve found for an all-around mixed media sketchbook. I’m abandoning my old favorite, the Strathmore mixed media, because Ohuhu is cheaper, has more features, and works better, IMO. And I LOVE the square format! This just keeps proving to me that Ohuhu is the very best company for beginner to intermediate artists, period.

I bought this for my 12yr old daughter. She loves it a lot. The pages are very thick like she wanted and the book feels durable. It's a good size although it is heavy due to the amount of pages it has. Markers do not bleed through it at all which is great. It is an awesome gift.

love this sketchbook. works like you’d expect. pages are slightly off in sizing but very subtle. holds up well and smooth with pen work

Absolutely love this sketchbook. The paper quality is great not super thick or thin there’s a little bit of bleed through, but that’s totally fine since it comes with a paper protector. I love the hardcover design; it feels sturdy, solid, and high-quality. The black cover looks sleek, and the added pocket in the back is super handy. I also appreciate the perforated edges so you can easily tear out pages if you want to. Can’t wait to keep drawing and filling it with art!

I have so far used this for heavy watercolor color or gouache paint practice and it has held up really well. The paper has a nice thickness and texture making easy for me to sketch or paint whenever. Overall a solid sketchbook for an artist or creative alike.

I have all three of ohuhu paper sketch books. This one has my most favorite paper out of all of them. My favorite for alcohol markers and acrylic markers. The alcohol markers do bleed through this one, but the paper is so good. It doesn’t matter. Really love the paper in this one!

Fantastic !!! Thick paper so it’s actually good for “mixed media” art. Great size Has a no bleed though protective sheet My favorite art journal so far

I really love this sketchbook! The square shape is a nice change from the traditional rectangular layout—it feels fresh and fun to work with. The paper thickness is excellent and holds up well to various media, especially alcohol markers. I really appreciate the tear-out lines, which make it easy to remove pages cleanly when needed. The included soft writing mat is a thoughtful touch—it protects the sheet underneath from press marks or bleed-through. I’ve even used rubbing alcohol and a paper towel to wipe it clean after marker work. Overall, it’s a well-designed, versatile sketchbook that works beautifully for both dry and wet media.
