Nova Series

In order to meet the wide range of artists’ needs, Stillman & Birn’s sketchbook system provides the choice of paper weight, shade, and surface type best suited to their specific techniques. With both internal and surface sizing, Stillman & Birn papers have exceptional wet strength that supports the application of multiple washes. Similarly, just as the paper’s sizing slows down water absorption, pigment stays on the surface of the sheet. The result: remarkably glowing colour!

The hardbound bindings - stiff when new - are designed to be broken in. The spines get eased in and then lay completely flat, accommodating both two-page drawing layouts and flatbed scanning. The wire bound bindings allow for your book to lay and remain flat and easy removal of pages to archive or share. The soft bound covers are sewn bound allowing flexibility while remaining durable. Rounded corners prevent frayed edges and give each book an elegant finish.
