Sitting between Raasay and Torridon, the Applecross Peninsula is a wild and rugged landscape, where time seems to move at a slow pace. Experience this same feeling as you imerse yourself in your watercolour painting in this sketchbook.
The Map Collection is a range of handmade sketchbooks and notebooks featuring maps of locations throughout Scotland. The maps are second-hand finds, and every cover has been thoughtfully considered when it comes to choosing the section of map to be featured. These maps have already had their first adventure with someone else; now it’s time for a new adventure with you.
This handmade watercolour sketchbook is especially for artists—the seasoned ones whose paintbrushes show years' worth of use or those just starting out and enjoying their newly found creativity. With beautifully textured, heavyweight paper made from 25% recycled cotton, painting with any wet media in this book will be a joy. Opting for carbon-neutral watercolour paper is not only a good choice for you, it’s also a good choice for our planet!

A5 Handmade Watercolour Sketchbook - Map Collection: Torridon & Raasay
All notebooks and sketchbooks at Pasgadh Bindery are made completely by hand by the designer in small batches using carefully selected materials.
The papers chosen are either recycled or handmade. Where maps are used, they are second-hand, charity shop finds. Book cloth is made using off-cut material, so the availability of colours and patterns is limited.
Please note: As these sketchbooks and notebooks are handmade, you may find some variation between them and small imperfections. This is the nature of a truly handmade item and what makes each book unique and special.
