Love the portable painter! Especially the fact that it's created by an artist and I'm not just supporting a huge corporation when buying it. It's so well designed that I also use it at home a lot (if not more) than outside. My favorite place to paint is either on my bed when it's cold outside, or at my desk when the sun is shining on me through my window :)
Oh, I love painting in nature
Your enthusiasm is so catchy, that you have made me fall in love with watercolour. Awesome channel. ❤❤❤
Love the painting Sketches, my favourite place to paint is at home in my studio, no distractions, headphones on.
my favourite place is probably my room. I love just relaxing and listening to music or videos and drawing 😄
I love watching reviews of this palette, but I haven’t considered getting it since I got my portable set up fairly squared away. You would put this to good use with all your travel art!!🤗❤️🤗
I did enjoy this video! And my favorite place to create is by my window where I get all the sunshine! Love through bloopers too!
I have wanted a Portable Painter since I first saw Denise Soden review it in 2017. I don't travel much, and I'm not a plein air painter, so I could never justify it. I recently got a new job that comes with a one hiyr lunch break. I thought I'd maybe try doing some art in my car on my break to decompress. Have I been looking for a reason yo buy this for seven whole years? Absolutely. Anyway, I watched your video while I was waiting for mine to arrive, and now I'm subbed and watching your live streams as I paint! Sorry for the ramble. Not sure if you'll see this on an old video, but comments always help the algorithm!
Thank you so much for wathing and your lovely words Frida! Lool 7 years - that is impressive. I am so glad you took the plunge and I hope that you enjoy it even more than you thought you would :D
I'm glad you enjoy my livestreams. No apologies needed, it is always nice to have a bit of a chat about art supplies! And you're right, it also helps my channel - so thank you x
I love the portable painter! I love painting sitting on my couch, and it's perfect for that. I agree with you about drying the water cups, they are hard to dry well enough to place back around the palette...
Amazing clear presentation of the pros and cons. Great vid.
Glad you liked it! Thank you for your kind words xx
Really enjoyed the review. Learned a lot about the Portable Painter. Liked the idea that it wouldn't take up much space on my desk top. Than I remembered what a klutz I am. It would have led to disaster.
The only place I can enjoy making art is in my room! Hopefully when it gets warmer, I can get the nerve to Art outside. Thank you for sharing this and keep creating 💙💜💛
I enjoy taking my watercolors en plein air and traveling. I would love for the creator to design a drawing board with slots for the water cups.
Do not have a favorite place for art. Safest place, sure. Home. Interesting place but highly dependable on weather and personal anxiety? Outside. All fun in their own ways.
Yes, it was a nice video. Perhaps short but all your hard work is very much appreciated.
Up until now, I paint at my desk in my office. But my son and I are getting ready for the nice weather so we can go en plain air together. We were thinking of the beach or in Carmel Valley and find a nice woodsy area to paint. I love your art work and this was a great review. Thank you.
I have loved this palette since Teoh reviewed it. But I don’t do plein air so am hesitating spending money on it. I have a small palette (medeen) and have lovely water brushes which can easily be my plein air kit if I ever did paint outdoors . I am SO happy you were sent it❤️❤️. You are a true outdoors artist like Teoh so it’s perfect for you ❤️
Having said that I still want it 🤣
Impressive design and a fair amount of colors from this set. Thank you for the review, pretty hair lady 😊👍
Lovely portable painter=) Thank you for the review=)
Lately I’ve been sketching anywhere I can grab a few minutes but I think my favorite place was my organized desk that I had before I moved
I love to create on the East Coast of Yorkshire and cant wait to try my new portabke painter standard up there this year!
One of the other travel painters that I watched uses a cotton wrist cuff which could service you in three ways as a brush cleaner like she used it but also as a water sponge or a closer if or in addition to the clip you are afraid to lose
Amazing video! Very informative! I love to create in spaces I'm comfortable, so normally in bed haha
You predicted the loss of the clip! 😅 I just thought that the cups being wet is annoying for storage… but that you could end up with dirty paint water all over the palette! Eeks! Nope, I would absolutely hate that >
Looool I did indeed... I know it is in my studio... just need to find it x
@@SketchesnScrubs it’ll show up next spring cleaning or something… 😬 I have many “lost items” like this too 😬
I haven't tried plein air painting yet. I still feel too uneasy about it and I'm so SPECIFIC about what I want as a plein air set up, I feel like I can't do it without getting it just right (working on undoing that as it impacts everything). I have looked at this travel palette and I have it on my Amazon wishlist because I am really intrigued by it. I kind of want to try and make James Gurney's set up and use that but who knows if I'll do that. I do finally have a craft desk to paint at and I love it. It's been really nice to have a set place to paint that doesn't take over my regular desk and less worry about spilling water on my work computer 😅
I bought the portable painter a few years ago and enjoyed using it. More recently I bought the micro painter , which I have not yet used. Both are well designed products.
I have the portable painter and have used it outdoors a few times. My biggest problem is that I like to switch paints a lot (I'm still learning and experimenting), so I'm frustrated that the pans aren't standard size. I'm hoping this year I'll be able to pick and stick to one plein air setup. My favorite place to create is at home where I feel relaxed. Thank you for this video.
My favorite place to paint is at my kitchen countertop, well it’s the only place I have enough space to paint! BTW I love your painting.😊
@@SketchesnScrubs you’re welcome! ❤️
My favourite place to paint? Not sure, never thought about it like that. I don’t think I have a favourite place; but I would love to paint in the countryside or in a forest. I’m thinking of the English countryside and English forests and woods.
Sadly in the cupboard under the stairs in my grandma’s old house but now I make do with my kitchen table and the brick wall out in front of my children’s school
i love painting in my mum's garden, she keeps lots of lovely flowers and the sunrises there are just gorgeous and the temperature is just the right kind of chilly, and i have endless floral references for my paintings! haha
As much as I love tiny/travel palettes I can't find an excuse to get because I hate painting outdoors 😅😅 the only place I might need it is when I go to my moms house 😂
Lol! I haven’t painted outside and right now I’m not comfortable with it.
Lovely video 🥰 i don’t enjoy painting away from my studio that much but i still enjoyed this video so much!
I love my Portable Painter palettes, and it's great that you have them now as well! Yes, I stick my clip in the rubber band, which I put around one of the water dishes when I have the palette open. I think I missed it if you said which paint you put in the palette?
I love this video!
it looks quite handy! my favourite place to paint in the garden on sunny days
I got my Portable Painter years ago when they first came out. That was before the rubber band was available, and I attached the clip to the side of the water pot leg with a little patch of velcro. I now have the rubber band and the 6 extra pans.
Ohh wow the great old classic painting palette! It is definitely a great one. I have got my W&N Compact 14 colors set travel palette which is my favorite to use to switch out colors with my studio set palette. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video!
With the rubber band around one cup, I slide my metal clip vertically between the cup and band
I have wondered about this palette and had it in and out of my cart. I mostly use Roman Szmal pans or A. Gallo so not sure if this would work for me. Thanks for the review. Loved the watercolor you were painting.
Thanks for the review! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who had trouble removing those pans 😂
Really thoughtful review! I have had a portable painter for the last few years and adore it too :)
Love your style. I have this pallette. My kitchen table is my fave place to paint, but I take this pallette on the ferry with me.
If you do lose the clip, 3d printed replacements would be a good route, I'm waiting on mine to ship to a friend in the states for him to forward on to me, when I get them I'll be modelling the clip and putting the file online for anyone to use
Ughh, I want these new expansion pans so much, but I still can’t find them with delivery to Europe. It’s my favorite palette to paint in my garden hands free
@@SketchesnScrubs thank you so much, this is very kind of you! But you helped me already: I found spare pans following your Amazon link and it appeared to be possible to order them with shipping to Netherlands as well, just a bit of additional taxes. Thank you again!
Good review…I think I’ll pick one up…thanks…
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Xx
As a person (due to disabilities) must balance a regular pallet on my lap (it’s fallen on floor so many times & wonder if this might work better & be more stable on my knee! Ty!
i’ll check it out later when i’m home and can’t wait but reading all the comments I think I know what the question is: I used to draw in my cozy ikea chair, loved it, but I also needed more desk space so I moved it to the basement. Sometimes I feel uncomfortable at my desk and I miss that chair. Still trying to come up with a solution to the space problem, I miss that chair
i llke the 2 water containers since i use a lot of water
hmm favourite place to create is oddly enough is in a graveyard, usually very peaceful and no one bugs you lol
Thank you for this! You're inspiring me to go outside and paint but i'll have to wait until Seattle gets a little warmer ha. Love my Portable Painter palette and put some Daniel Smith watercolors in it that I got at a sale at the University bookstore with some of the new colors i got during the holidays. I love the tiny pans they created for the brush well so we can squeeze in more colors!
also, the fear of losing that palette clip (and the band) is real!
Warmer ….and doesn’t rain ….on and off. Aaah the PNW ! 🤣
I have a little corner in the family room where I like to paint. I have a wooden cabinet with lots of drawers for storage and there is a desk surface that folds/unfolds. So, I can either open the desk and paint there, or sit on the corner of the sofa with all of my supplies accessible beside me.
I bought the micro and portable painter classic sets (with the new pan options) from their Black Friday sale last year. I still haven’t chosen my paint colours because it seems so permanent, since I can’t use my normal half pans to switch colours in and out if I choose the wrong ones! I think I’m going to start with the micro palette because it’s the perfect size for a little travel kit I want to take on vacation. I love that they both have spots for water so I don’t have to take a separate container with me.
@@SketchesnScrubs To order an expansion set of half pans and have them shipped to Canada (with shipping and exchange rate on the Canadian dollar), it costs almost $40. So that’s not going to happen 😂. If they could be purchased from a Canadian retailer, when ordering other supplies, it would be more feasible. I am so glad I was able to order during their Black Friday sale, so I did get the custom pans at that time. I’m starting with the micro and have filled it with pans that allow me to bring 12 colours. I’m going to use it in combination with Art Toolkit’s little demi palette, so I’ll have a pretty good selection of paint in a very small amount of space 😊.
thanks for sharing your thoughts about this particular palette. I love this palette!!! Recently I found out that they invented these expansion pans for that long well but I sadly can't buy them. They don't ship to Germany 😱 do you know another way to get them?
Mine was delivered Friday 😊
If you want to use magnets on plastic…I have used a hot glue gun to attach molybdenum magnets to plastic
Thank you for sharing! I’ve stuck on the thin sheets of metal that are usual for phones - it has worked a treat but I’ll keep your suggestion in mind for next time x
My palette broke after five uses. The hinge broke and it wasn’t dropped or used carelessly. It was replaced but now I’m afraid to use it.
Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that Dale, I think it may have just been faulty, I’ve used mine quite a lot and I’m quite rough lool and it’s fine. Xx
Can the primary half-pans be removed and the space they occupied be filled with paint instead? Also, did you try the water brushes and have any opinion of them? Thanks!
Hey! Yes that’s an option if you’re not going to be changing out the colours. I don’t use the water brushes much as they were quite small for me and I prefer a brush & water when possible x.
@@SketchesnScrubs I committed to the Plus Kit, so I guess I'll find out soon enough. 😅 I don't own a water brush yet, so I figured they'd at least give me a sense for what using one might be like. Like you, I may find I prefer the more traditional option of the brush and water being independent of the other.
2nd!
So cute but not for me. I do not have the courage to paint outdoors. 😊
@@SketchesnScrubs 🤩❤️
