The surface provides the perfect level of brush resistance while allowing the pigment to flow beautifully across the page. Those that \"upgrade\" to 100% cotton paper often credit it as having had a greater impact on their art than the quality of paint that they use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur Sketchbook range was developed in collaboration with Singaporean artist Erwin Lian. As a professional artist and teacher, Erwin understood the benefits of using 100% cotton paper with wet-media, but was frustrated with the lack of sketchbook options on the market. Erwin took to crowdfunding, to make his “Perfect Sketchbook” a reality. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eErwin’s book used heavy weight 100% cotton acid-free paper that featured stunning hand-torn deckled edge paper and was finished with lay-flat binding for ease of use. The response was overwhelming. Today, Erwin works in collaboration with Etchr - Erwin focuses on design and innovation, and the Etchr team makes these Sketchbooks available to artists worldwide. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe offer a two-year limited warranty, beginning at the time of purchase on all Etchr products sold.
