A Watercolour Palette Plus A Few Tips and Tricks

If you are an art lover or do paintings on a daily basis, you have definitely experiment with the different colour mixings and creating a perfect shade of colour for your art. Mixing colours and creating a perfect shade is a fun and mind-relaxing activity as well as gives the satisfaction of getting the colour you want.

Colour mixing is easier if you have artist palette mixing pots, which give you a smooth and plain surface to experiment with your colours. At Cowling and Wilcox, we offer a variety of colour-mixing palettes that you should try. Here are some of them:

  •          Loxley Clear Plastic kidney shaped Palette
  •          Cowling and Wilcox Kidney-shaped Palette
  •          Loxley Wooden Oval Palette
  •          Daler-Rowney Small StayWet Palette

Benefits of Using These Palettes

  •         These palettes include a thumbhole for easy holding, so you don’t drop the palette while               painting.
  • ·     These are made from durable and lightweight material which makes it easy to hold them for a       longer time.
  • ·      These can be used for all forms of water-based paints.

Here are a few tips to maximize your watercolour palette experience:

·         Organize your colours

Arrange your paints in a way that makes sense to you. Some artists prefer to group similar colours, while others arrange them in a rainbow spectrum.

·         Use a Water Spray

Keep your paint moist by lightly misting it with water. This prevents them from drying and makes it easier to mix new colours when inspiration strikes.

·         Clean your Palette Regularly

A clean palette ensures that your colours remain vibrant and true. Wash out any leftover paint and dried pigments to maintain your artist palettes in the top condition.
