Visual journaling is a place where the artist’s creative process can flourish. It’s a playground where imperfection is perfectly amazing. Strathmore Visual Journals deliver high-performing papers and heavy-duty features engineered to meet the intense demands of the artist’s creative process.

Strathmore’s Watercolor Visual Journal features Strathmore 400 Series Watercolor paper. It is an intermediate grade watercolor paper, popular with watercolorists of all levels because of the fine and even washes that can be achieved using this paper. It has a strong surface that will allow lifting and scraping applications. The natural white color and traditional cold press surface make it an ideal sheet for mastering watercolor techniques or for finished artwork.

This paper is acid free to ensure longevity and 90 lb or 190 gsm thick. It is ideal to use with watercolours & gouache and can also be used for acrylic, oil, airbrush, mixed media, collage, drawing, pen & ink, oil pastel and marker.

Their books feature heavyduty covers (with a removable top cover sheet that attracts attention & provides detailed information on paper performance characteristics and recommended media) with wire binding that is thicker and stronger than traditional wire. The binding itself allows the journal to lie flat and open up 360 degrees a feature important to artists.

Traditional journals do not offer the range of paper types and weights needed to handle the rigors of mixed media journaling. Our Visual Journals focus on what’s inside, offering a full range of paper types and weights requested by artists themselves.

The Galeria Acrylics line consists of 60 magnificent colors in 60ml tubes and 500ml Jars making it ideal for art & design students, hobbyists, muralists, decorative painters and fine artists who work on a grand scale.

Although Galeria Acrylics are sometimes referred to as a fine grade acrylic, their high pigment levels deliver professional results with significantly better covering power than many similarly priced brands
