Canson^® 1557^® Art Book

Perfectly suited to all dry techniques, the sketchbook enables you to produce highly accurate illustrations, as well as a "first draft" of all your ideas. This practical sketchbook is ideal for anyone who wants to draw anywhere, without the risk of damaging the paper.

The sketchbook, the ideal medium for your sketches

Keep it with you every day, so you can create your drawings away from your studio: in particular, you can use it to scribble down one of your on-the-spot ideas, or to put on paper the basics of a more complex creation.  

Bring all your ideas to life

Indispensable for your first drafts and refining your artistic ideas, the Canson^® 1557^® art book gives you the opportunity to gather all your ideas in one place. It prevents you from misplacing your drawings, as can so often be the case with loose-leaf paper.
You can use it to jot down inspirational phrases, draw a landscape or a face you don't want to forget and more. 
Whatever the context, the 1557® art book lets you capture your inspiration on the fly, because its format, with its hard cover, small pocket and elegant elastic closure, makes it easy to carry around! 

Define your artistic style

The sketchbook is the perfect accessory for trying out new illustration techniques and discovering new artistic horizons. 
It has a very neutral grained surface, and its high-quality paper lends itself perfectly to the use of dry techniques. This makes it ideal for technical illustrations, as its whiteness gives excellent colour contrast.
The sketchbook is suitable for both experienced artists and beginners, and gives you absolute creative freedom. You don't need to worry about layout when using your sketchbook, because its main purpose is to let your creativity flow!
