My Palette

palette0001

Here is my palette — an entry for Everyday Matters Challenge #190. It is a Winsor & Newton Cotman travel set that I picked up at Dick Blick a couple months ago. It hasn’t seen much use yet, but I think that will change.

I’ve heard a lot of good things about Arches watercolor paper, so today I bought a watercolor block of cold-pressed 140 pound paper (7 x10 inches). That’s what I used for this painting. I really like not having to prep the paper in any way. It’s nice to do a painting without fighting with curling paper.

    Jeff,

    wow! what a great palette! I don’t have a palette since I use watercolour pencils. If I did use one I would love one like yours! the Arches paper is fantastic! Cheers!

    What a great painting. I have the exact same palette but mine is way messier!

    Beautiful Jeff! and oh so clean. Not that that will last for long. Fortunately you’re too productive for the untouched look.
