Wonderful video about watercolor palettes, this got me to know a bit more about watercolor painting.
Hello guys, for those of you that already have a plastic palette you could use a green scrubbing pad to clean the painting surface and avoid the paint separation. This works most of the time. Enjoy painting!
yes your right. Can also use crocus cloth or even sink cleaner with a bit of grit like VIM
Or you could just use your palette a lot and it goes away. Scrubbing up the surface causes it to stain faster.

Alvaro Castagnet uses that last palette but of my other two famous favorite watercolorists, neither Joseph Zbukvic nor Herman Pekel uses one. I see them using simple inexpensive ones painting en plein air. Thanks for sharing. Its so amazing how many palettes are out there to choose from.
I prefer porcelain because I hate stained palettes. I find that even the coated metal palettes stain. Mine have and I hate using them.
Renee Marks actually Joseph Zbukvic lists a House of Hoffman pallete www.josephzbukvic.com/equipment/
He will promote lot of things on his web site for a commission. He even used a Hub Cap from a car for a palette once at a workshop when he forgot to bring one. He uses a Holbein palette in his DVDs and even his UA-cam videos.

I sprayed two of my plastic palettes with enamel paint. I gave them two to three coats but it didn’t work. Paint still beaded up. So I bought a small ceramic palette. I also came across a lovely china dinner plate with a rim adorned with what look like shallow wells all around. Beautiful surface.
...plate with little wells all around? sounds like one of those plates for boiled eggs and salad that were fashionable when i was a child 60 yrs ago! Yes, that would be a great palette, I'll have to look in my local second hand shops for one.... thanks for the idea...
I have seen on UA-cam a plate you are describing. I hope you will find one - they would be very rare. I don't even know what they are called. I will grab one if I see one myself! Mine is a dinner plate but it serves as a palette very well. Good luck in your hunting :) PS: I paid a good money for a well designed metal one but sadly paint/water still beads up. Ceramic/porcelain is the best. You can't go wrong.
I'm glad to hear you mention the extra paint wells causing an unwanted mixture with the corresponding row when closed. I don't know why they designed palettes that way. Even if you wait for the paint to dry, you can't be sure they all dry at the same time. Good reviews!
Another tip, I use m. Graham watercolors and you can download a chart from their website. Make two copies and use one to cut out the names and label the wells. Print the other copy on sticker paper and stick it on the of the well.
***stick it on the inside cover .
Shereen Timmerman Thank's for sharing your tip, I think it is a great idea.
Excellent suggestion, Shereen. Thank you. One question: I began with a few M. Graham paints, and was instantly told the vehicle they use is honey, vs gum arabic. I think insect fugitive was on their mind, but have you found anything unusual happen?
Thanks for idea about enamel paint,I tryed it on cheap pallet,and it works a treat.
excellent video. thanks so much! all the information I needed to know. Now I have a palette and I like it very much. I ended up with the inexpensive but lovely designed San Francisco slant palette. loads of room to mix.
Thank you very much definitely one of the most helpful videos on UA-cam and I watch a lot of them. If you do more videos id gladly watch them. No pressure of course just thank you for making this very helpful video.
Thank you.
SO grateful for this video. I just invested in the porcelain palette and mixing pans, but hadn't yet tried them out. Can't wait to see what else you've got online. Thank you!
There were also plates with shallow hollows for holding oysters, that you could use. It has been a while since I have seen them or the egg plates
Great video! Thank you for the great tips
Great video! I paint with acrylics but recently have been wanting to get back into watercolors and this video has been so informative and such a great help. Thank you for taking the time to make this video & I look forward to seeing more!
Thank you so much for your words, I am glad you where able to get something out of it. I am so behind on the other videos, but I hope to get back to them soon.

This video was very informative and your voice is really relaxing XD Please make more videos even thought this was over a year ago!
I add sea salt water sit in the mixing wells in my plastic palate, and after a while it mixing and holds paint great,.
Thank you for your advice.
An excellent idea to use the spray paint enamel 👍
I usually use a big, glass "Counter Saver" by Corning as they are pure white and perfectly flat - that means absolute control over the paint. I can paint all the way to the edges but the surface tension keeps it on the glass. I have found the best thing for cleaning any palette is the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser - there is nothing better. I like to make my palette pure white again after each painting and the Counter Saver looks brand new every time. Try one and see what you think. It doesn't replace the palette with the wells, as it's perfectly flat, but it's great for extra mixing area. $440 for a palette? And you are limited with those round mixing areas? I think I would be disappointed as the ring wouldn't fit me and it would make it not lay flat. I love my glass palettes and they only cost me a total of $20 as I found 2 of them in thrift stores - a huge one and a little one. I am looking for a good travel palette, so you have given me a good fix for my acrylic one with the enamel paint trick. I will give it a try. Thanks!
very good narrative .well done ..take care
Thank you much. I hope to come up with a new video soon, I hope you enjoyed it too.
Loved the video ! Keep up the good work . I want to start watercolor and that helped me a lot thank you
Marjolaine Arias Thank you Marjolaine Arias. I hope to have my new video ready in about a week that I hope can add more to your experience of watercolor. Thank you for watching
Thanks for the video I have been looking for an answer, and you just answered it.
I am glad this video helped you. I would like to invite you to subscribe to my channel for more videos, and to follow me on Instagram #hansyaeggy If you like this video, please click like. Thank you again.
I like using a porcelain serving plate
Super cheap and huge mixing area
Use a 4 gallon trash badge to cover it
The brass expensive ones are neat but I use almost exactly the same thing made of heavy plastic.( for $40.00) The brass one is heavy also- I'm sure most of the well known artists that have the brass one' is because the maker has given it to them! Good advertising!
10:52 Hi...thank you so much for sharing. I see a lot of funny animals on your palett. A turtle in the middle, a green smiling dog in the left corner, a half face at 7 o´clock, ...and so on! Crazy..lol. Nice greetins and fun at your artwork.Tschij
Thank you. That is so funny, you see all these animals. Have fun painting.
+Tschij Dölla Do you see the light blue fish with long tail on the bottom right corner? I definitely saw the profile of the turtle; so funny how to eye is exactly on point! Couldn't see the dog though.
Very informative. Looking forward to some more videos.
Thank you.
It's a hackneyed expression, but the best watercolor palette is the one you use.
Oh how i wish i could just download that last palette as a torrent. Free and instantly!
I actually had no problem with blending paint in plastic palets
I use a plastic one, love it.
Good for you, as long as it work for you, that what it matters. All we want is to have fun.
440 , dang, your right, that is a bad thing. Lol

Hi Just wondering where you order the last palette that you review and it's full name please
A beginner of watercolour painting before purchasing for these professional materials, first of all should try and practise watercolour many times to understand whether watercolour is the right material for himself/herself or not...
Great video! In the first palette you showed, what are those little holes on the bottom around the thumb hole used for? I have a similar palette, but couldn't ever figure it out...
***** Those holes are for carrying standing brushes... If you have your pallete on a table won't work. But if you are holding it in your hand as you paint you can put a few standong brushes on those holes, of course you need them to be in various handle sizes to fit in them.
"Best" is just a superlative but it is good
When the whole world agrees that something is the best then is just the best.
Here, buy a RC young with a two year plus wait list.
Thanks, very interesting.
Thank you for your comment. I hope to come up with a new video soon, I hope you enjoyed it too.
Thank you for this video! Could you please tell me what brand spray paint you used on the plastic pallet? You said it's Enamel Paint, but Could you please describe it more? Is it a spray paint? Did you use a brush to apply the paint? What brand name did you use?? Thank you!
Hi,
Thank you for your question. I am sure any white enamel spray paint from your hardware store will be ok. I particularly like to use the brand Testor. This paint comes in small cans and are usually use to paint those plastic scale model airplanes that you find at hobby shops or Michael's craft stores. This paint tend to leave a thicker film of paint. The other thing you can try before you spend any money, is to scrub your plastic palette with those green scrubbing pads used to clean dishes.
excellent video
I'm just a beginner and I wonder what those holes at a big palette are for?
Hi, Thank you for your question. When you asked about the holes in a big palette, I am not sure witch palette or what holes you are referring to, but in any case, let me explain few things about palettes. If you are referring to the palette described in my video minute 4:53 these holes, are used for two things: The very big hole in the left side, is the one you used to bring your thumb through so you can hold the palette in your hand; the other small holes are used to hold your watercolor brushes, and that is the reason why they are much smaller than the first one in the left. Every manufacture have it's own design, perhaps the palette at the minute 12:29 instead of a using a hole, it used a small ring in the bottom of the palette so you can get your thumb through.
I hope this explanation answer your question. If you like to see more paintings, I like the opportunity to invite you to follow me in Instagram #hansyaeggy Thank you for watching my video.
thank you so much i already got the answer! :)) i will go to your IG.
What Did you use to fill the Craig young palette paint from tubes or cakes? Thanks for the video.
+Jane Cerami Hello Jane, sorry for the delay to answer your question. I alway had much better results with tubes, for some reason I feel that tubes gives you more vivid colors than cakes. However, cakes are very convenient when you travel.
Thank you for watching my video.
Enjoy painting!
I used windsor newton tube paint. Thanks for the advice.
Nothing Wrong with cakes. You have to moisten them really well. If you do that they work just as well as gooey tube paint. Not quite. But close enough for me not to notice the difference
Thanks great video
Thank you,
I am glad you like it.
STARTING at $445??? I'm a brand new painter, and my entire watercolor budget for paper, paints, and a palette is $100! Yikes! I also see very small mixing areas, and the wells are small, too close together to not contaminate paint. Oh my Lord...
Wow smooth arms
Hi...
Please, whats the name of the last palette ,the best. ?
Andres, no puede entender tu pregunta.
did you say $440 of that last palette?
Yes I know, it may sound crazy but I really have so much fun with it. Hope you found this video useful.
Best regards!
I think it's kind of insane lol unless it's made out of gold. Yes I enjoyed the video and subscribed hoping to see some of your work. I love watching other artist work.

It's one of a kind, all hand made, that's how it's expensive...but I do agree the price is a wee bit too much. It could be £150 - 180 and I don't think he would lose money. And that way a lot more folks can enjoy his palettes...
thanks
Interesting
Thank you:)
Your very welcome.
How many time take to dry?
what brand enamel spray paint did you use? is it glossy or matte?
I just used Testor Painting in a spray semi-gloss.
The Paint Box is waaaay too expensive. It doesn't even seem that sturdy, it looks as if you can bend the little flaps easily and it could fall apart quickly.
it is sturdy. it's a brass palette better than cheap plastic palettes that stain overtime, better than schminke palettes too
whats the last pallet's name?
+arturo aguilar Hello Arturo, thank you for checking out my video.
The palette that you see in the video is listed as: THE PAINTBOX From Craig's website www.watercolorpaintboxcompany.com/index.html I hope you get the chance to try one, its an amazing feeling to paint with one of those palettes.
Best regards,
Thank you!
I got away from oil painting because of the giant mess it made.
400 dollars? that's totaly ridicoulous , i am superserial about watercolours but not throwing my money away on some fashionable gadget
+therealb3yond I think owning something handmade, by someone who takes pride in their craft, is why most are gravitated towards these products. $400 for a watercolor painting done by a pro doesn't seem outlandish. Why does $400 for something handmade, by someone who is just as skilled at what they do, seem ridiculous?
Because there are a multitude of other palettes which are equally as good, if not better than this one. It's a fine palette but let's not pretend that anyone who buys this isn't doing it simply for the luxury of being able to say they have it.
People buy what they enjoy and what they can afford. Of course you can do the same with cheaper palettes, you can also get from A to B on a bicycle or in a Ferrari.
People who buy cheap usually buy at least twice. I`m on my 4th or 5th palette by now and am finally considering a heavier brass palette.
Shipping and import costs are the real killer for price... Blame import costs and ridiculous taxation by your greedy government... Who don't even spend those taxes on universal healthcare, social care or education...
Handmade palettes are works of art on their own. Granted there are artworks that are priced at 400 dollars but makes me feel like I won't pay 400 dollars for it. But there will be others who would like that type of art. No need to speak negatively about that artwork or worse about the people who appreciate that same artwork.
How do you know that palette is a male? Looks like a woman to me...
Sooooooo slow!
You guys right!
