Sketchbooks specific for watercolors or other painting media do usually have 300 GSM paper for multiple layers. Our Recommendation List for the Best SketchbooksPaper up to 90 GSM is good for sketching, charcoal, pastels, colored pencils, and most pens. It is too thin though for Copic markers or watercolors. This Leather Watercolour Sketchbook is carefully hand bound in tactile Mustard Yellow leather with Olive Green linen thread in the Longstitch style, which is both beautiful and practical. GSM is the metric measurement of the weight of art paper. The lower the number, the thinner the paper, for example, tracing paper is 40 GSM, and newspapers are printed on up to 50 GSM. This metric can be converted to imperial lbs at 1 lb to 2.70GSM of paper. For example, 300 GSM would be converted to 140 lb paper.
