## Appearance

It is a sketchbook with multiple pages. The main page is white with black lines for eyebrows and a mouth and two round eyes. During different scenes, Sketchbook's appearance changes as a new page is turned over. This includes multicolored hair, a page with a light bulb, a pages with a brain and the word time (with the "I" replaced with a clock), a page with leaves and sticks, a page with a realistic heart and a page depicting rain. After Red Guy unplugs the Panel Control, Sketchbook has a blue cover instead of a black one and seems to be crossed-eyed.

## Personality

Sketchbook likes to be creative, however, it doesn't want anyone to be creative with its own ideas. For example, when Yellow Guy suggests painting a picture of a clown, it pours ink over the painting and responds with "Whoa there friend, you might need to slow down," followed by a pause before it changes the topic. Later, when Yellow Guy says that green is his favorite color, Sketchbook's response is "Green is not a creative color" as it places a black "X" over the word.

## Villainous Acts

* Didn't allow the puppets to be creative in their own way.
* Poured ink on Yellow Guy's clown picture.
* Said that green is not a creative colour.
* Indirectly caused the puppets to go insane and/or possibly hallucinate.

## Trivia

* The Notepad is seen twice in Episode 2 and once in Episode 3.
* Joseph Pelling mentioned on his twitter that the Sketchbook's gender is paper, which could mean that the sketchbook is genderless.[1]
* The Sketchbook is commonly known to fans as "Paige," however, that isn't it's official name; its actual name was stated as Sketchbook as confirmed by the official website by clicking the first picture and placing the cursor at the bottom to bring up the caption.[2]
* It is also commonly assumed by fans that Sketchbook's gender is female, even though it is genderless.
	+ This is likely because its voice actor, Becky Sloan, is female.
* Strings were used for Sketchbook's movement.
* Sketchbook states that green is not a creative color, although it has a green strand in its multicolored hair.
* Sketchbook states that green is not a creative color, but if you do a research about whether green is a creative color, or not, it turns out that the color green is conservatively creative. This supports the theory that Sketchbook may just dislike Yellow Guy.
* It can lift pages of its own self.
* If somebody watches the first and sixth episode at the same time, the scene where Sketchbook covers the clown painting in oil is played at the same time where Yellow Guy gets drowned in oil.
* When Sketchbook shows the picture of the brain, the Temporal Lobe (the part of the brain that processes auditory information from the ears) is green. This could possibly mean that "Green is not a creative color" means that the ability to understand sounds is useless.
