GIVEAWAY: Let Your Creativity Flow with Stillman & Birn Art Journals! [Closed]
5 Jun
We’ve got three fabulous Stillman & Birn art journals to give away to our loyal followers! (Please read through all the contest details at the bottom of this post before entering!)
Each sketchbook is 6 by 8 inches with pH neutral paper. They vary in their paper weight and purpose, but each has internal and surface sizing that provides exceptional wet strength, and is compatible with precision erasing techniques. Best of all, the heavy-duty binder boards are incredibly tough and will protect your sketches, paintings, and more while resisting warpage. If you’re looking for the best in sketchbooks, look no further than Stillman & Birn!
And the three art journals to give away are …

Stillman & Birn Epsilon Side Spiralbound Sketchbook this would be the one for me as i work in pencil and ink all the time;and sketchbooks are were all my drawing live.
The Pen and Ink sketchbook (100 lb plate finish) would be sufficient for my needs, I’m working an illustration style that incorporates pencil, ink and rubber stamp impressions. Pick me!!!
Ohhh I would love to try the Stillman & Birn Alpha Side Spiralbound Sketchbook! I use pen and ink but would love to try colored pencil or light washes of water color over them using this awesome paper.
Check out my blog for some sketches. I need to practice coloring more. XD
All look great, but I am thinking the Epsilon side would work for me. Actually, if I win, a perfect gift for my artist daughter who would certainly appreciate a good, solid sketchbook.
Best, and keep on blogging.
I would probably go with the beta and use it to art journal my summer…
Generous offer for a lovely choice of the Stillman & Birn sketchbooks. My favorite is the Alpha, and I’d love to test out the Beta.
I would go with the Stillman & Birn Epsilon Side Spiralbound Sketchbook and doodle to my heart’s content. Thanks for the opportunity to win. Good luck to all!
The “Beta” would be ideal, but I’m open to trying many different things. Options,that’s what it’s all about.
alpha or beta, please!
i can always use more artist journals!
I would use the Stillman & Birn Epsilon Side Spiralbound Sketchbook for zentangle inspired artwork that I oh so love to create
Beta please! I would fill the book with acrylic paint backgrounds and then doodle over top. Mandalas galore!
this one: Stillman & Birn Epsilon Side Spiralbound Sketchbook for pen and ink
I’d finally write my book!
The Beta would be fun for mixed media adventures. I like to draw then paint and collage in layers.
OR
The Epsilon would be great to use my pen collection in for drawing and sketching with notes.
Thank you for the chance.

Beta, but any of the three would be lovely
Use would be a tough call – have a couple of multimedia projects, but also thinking of gift recipients who would be equally excited.
Decisions, decisions . . .
I’d choose Stillman & Birn Beta Side Spiralbound Sketchbook and start the a collage-a-day project I’ve been wanting to do for a while. I plan to make a collage every day for a month (or more) chronicling my journey through graduate school and becoming a social worker.
Stillman & Birn Epsilon Side Spiralbound Sketchbook would be my choice. I travel with fountain pens; which I use for all my notes and small drawings when travelling.

I would really love to try the Stillman & Birn Epsilon Side Spiralbound Sketchbook for pen and ink drawings. This would be ideal for my concept drawings and maps for an RPG computer game I have been working on since graduating from ITT Technical Institute with a degree in Digital Entertainment and Game Design. A high quality sketch book that I would fill with only my best drawings.
As a graphic design student I would use the Stillman & Birn Beta Side Spiralbound Sketchbook to create my project ideas.
I prefer the third choice. Stillman & Birn Epsilon Side Spiralbound Sketchbook
Best for Pen & Ink Drawings

Oh, I love them all! If forced, I think the Beta would be the most suitable for me…
I would use the Beta and use it to get back into drawing again. It’s been so long! Nothing inspires like a beautiful new skectchbook
I like the Stillman & Birn Beta Side Spiralbound Sketchbook. I would use it as a travel journal while on our trip to Texas. I can see adding pictures, stickers and ticket stubs.
I would love to add an Epsilon sketchbook to my collection. I do quite a bit of ink drawings and would love to see how this paper takes ink.
The alpha, because I want to take it with me while touring Kentucky and Fallingwater this summer.
I would love any of them but the epsilon spiral bound would be awesome because I draw mostly in ink and pencil. Thank you so much for an awesome contest.
The Alpha. I would give it to my 8 yr old son. While I consider myself an artist, and have taught him most that I know, I see that his raw talent and pure imagination far exceeds mine and I can only encourage it. I’m confident we’ll all be staring at his work in awe some day.
I would love to win the 3rd notebook (Stillman & Birn Epsilon side spiralbound sketchbook)I recently opened a shop on Etsy. One of the things I am doing is putting my doodles and designs on ceramic mugs. I love sketchbooks for so many reasons

Alpha. Because I’d have the classiest notebook in class.
I like multi media. The beta is for me!
I’d like to win either the Epsilon wire bound 9×12 or the Alpha wire bound 9×12! My preferred drawing media these days is fountain pen and ink or technical pen with light water color washes.
If I should win this giveaway, I think I would prefer the Stillman & Birn Alpha Side Spiralbound Sketchbook. I am just beginning to sketch and I write frequently. This would fit my habit – er, hobby – quite nicely. Thank you in advance.
