Finding the right painting palette is essential for accurate color mixing. Our selection caters to all artists, whether they require a lightweight watercolor paint palette for travel or a heavy one for studio work.
Material Matters: Ceramic vs. Plastic
The material you choose significantly affects your mixing experience.
Ceramic Paint Palette: Often considered the best watercolor paint palette for professionals. The smooth, weighted porcelain surface keeps the palette steady on your desk and guards against stains. Crucially, the pure white paint palette background ensures accurate color judgment before the paint touches the watercolor paper.
Plastic Paint Palette: Lightweight and affordable. For students or plein air artists who carry their equipment, these are excellent portable watercolor palettes that pair perfectly with compact travel brushes.
Mixing Area & Layout: Wells vs. Flat Space
The layout of your artist paint palette dictates how you mix.
Large Wells: If you paint with broad washes, you need a watercolor paint palette with large mixing areas (big grids). This allows you to mix a sufficient amount of fluid color without running out halfway through a wash.
Small Wells: For detailed work, a palette with many small wells is ideal. It keeps individual pigments separate and organized, perfect for squeezing out fresh tube paints or using alongside a paint set.
Quick Buying Comparison
For Studio Use: Choose a ceramic palette for watercolor painting. Large, smooth washes are possible because it doesn't bead up water.
For Travel: Select a folding plastic palette or a metal tin box.
For Large Brushes: Make sure your paint palette has a sizable mixing area and deep wells.
We design every artist paint palette to offer ample mixing space and easy cleanup(especially when used with our brush cleaner tools), helping you focus on creating your art.
FAQs
Q1: 수채화 그림에 가장 적합한 팔레트는 무엇인가요?
A: 저희는 세라믹 물감 팔레트를 추천합니다. 매끄러운 표면은 물이 맺히는 것을 방지하여 부드러운 혼색이 가능합니다. 얼룩 없이 쉽게 세척할 수 있어 전문 화가들이 선호합니다.
Q: 흰색 물감 팔레트가 왜 중요한가요?
A: 흰색 배경은 실제 색상을 보는 데 매우 중요합니다. 흰색 위에서 혼색하면 흰색 종이에 어떤 색조가 나타날지 정확히 알 수 있으므로 작품에서 색상으로 인한 놀라움을 방지할 수 있습니다.
Q: 수채화 물감 팔레트를 어떻게 청소하나요?
A: 세라믹의 경우 젖은 천으로 닦거나 물로 헹구기만 하면 됩니다. 플라스틱 물감 팔레트의 경우 사용 후 즉시 청소하십시오. 플라스틱에 약간의 얼룩이 남는 것은 시간이 지남에 따라 정상적이지만 향후 혼색에 영향을 미치지 않습니다.
Q: 물감 팔레트를 올바르게 잡는 방법은 무엇인가요?
A: 만약 엄지 구멍 팔레트를 사용하는 경우, 엄지 손가락을 넣고 팔뚝에 팔레트를 올려 놓으십시오. 그러나 대부분의 수채화가들은 안정성과 더 나은 물 조절을 위해 테이블 위에 팔레트를 평평하게 놓는 것을 선호합니다.
Q: 휴대용 수채화 팔레트를 제공하나요?
A: 예. 저희 컬렉션에는 여행을 위해 설계된 작고 가벼운 옵션이 포함되어 있습니다. 가방에 쉽게 들어가 야외 스케치 및 도시 스케치를 위한 완벽한 아티스트 물감 팔레트입니다.

Such an easy compact portable paint box
Such an easy compact portable paint box.
Have it set up with my favourite colours.
Thoroughly recommend it!
I like it. I didn’t realize when I bought it that the graphite end unscrewed and there’s a second brush for finer detail. If I put part of a paper towel over my pallet before I close it, it absorbs enough water not to cause problems after I mix paint in the middle half pans. I use the top and the bottom half pans for paint. There are two magnets at the top of the lid and two magnets on the bottom that hold it securely closed. The only thing I found is that I prefer to fold up the tray to reach my paper to paint. to paint. It’s not a problem as I mix my paint in the empty half pans.
This is perfect! Just love it. Brush is super and the colors are vibrant and rich pigmented. The sketching part of the brush came as a grateful surprise. I am very satisfied with this travel set. Will maybe buy the larger size too.
