The weight can be measured in pounds (lb.) or grams per square meter (gsm). What is it? This is how thick your paper is. There are also extremely portable palm-sized ones which can fit in your pocket, but they can be too small for intricate drawings Paper weight. They are more comfortable to work with when laid on a surface (table, etc.). However, these books are heavier and require a larger bag. This can also be the right choice if you like to work with watercolors and ink. Larger areas require more time for drawing. If you like to draw details and want to up-size, choose an A4 sketchbook which opens up to a working area of A3. Beginners may start with an A5 sketchbook which is used for general purposes. When you try to choose a sketchbook size, think what size inspires you and what your drawing style is.
