Hightide Penco Sketch Book (B5 & B6)
Description
Penco’s very first sketchbook series begins with a confident stroke: this B5 sketchbook is equipped with heavy-weight paper (157g/m²), perfect for watercolours, acrylics, and the noble crayon. The paper’s off-white surface is softly textured and beautifully absorbent—ideal for wet media that likes to spread its wings a bit.
Bound in Penco’s signature two-colour letterpress cover and backed with sturdy board, it’s made to travel—from café table to park bench—while still offering a steady drawing surface. The paper dries quickly and resists warping, so your artwork stays crisp, not crumpled.
Also available in A5 and A6 sizes with both medium and heavy paper options, all featuring the same gentle tooth and grain, this series suits everything from delicate pencil sketches to unapologetically bold brushwork.
