The Swooshy Blue sketchbook features a very satisfying oil painty swooshy pattern and a lovely chestnut brown colour inside cover.
This sketchbook is part of the Charleston Sketchbook range, inspired by the the iconic Charleston Farmhouse, home of the Bloomsbury group – some of the most radical artists, writers and thinkers of the 20th Century (think Virginia Wolf, Vanessa Bell, Roger Fry). Five unique designs that incorporate the luscious textures, bold colours and expressive energy you experience through a visit to the house and gardens. All painted, collaged and sketched by Hadley’s own radical – Jo Waterhouse!
Designed for people whose thoughts don’t present themselves in straight lines and lists, Hadley sketchbooks have blank pages so you can write, sketch and doodle however you please. The paper is lovely and thick so you can scribble, paint and go back over things and the pages won’t wear through. Perfectly portable, ready to be used whenever an idea strikes.
Our beautiful perfect bound A5 sketchbooks are 15cm x 21cm and have 48 blank pages with rounded corners, for your very own sketches, notes, work things, doodles and important life-altering thoughts. The 150gsm paper comes from 100% recycled materials such as hemp and cotton and has a soft, absorbent texture, suitable for pencil, pen and paint.
The soft cover is a luxurious, textured 280gsm high-strength uncoated sustainable paper, eco-friendly.
Your sketchbook will arrive with the label tucked inside and a glassine bellyband around it, posted in plastic-free packaging.
