Collapsible Water Container
Collapsible and ideal for travel and painting on the go.
Palette
Empty 18-well watercolour plastic palette.
Round Palette
Round small 10-well plastic palette.
Round Porcelain Palette
Round 12-weel porcelain palette.
Stay Wet Palette
I use a stay-wet palette in my studio for my oils. I have a glass inserted in there, to cover the whole area, and I use a glass razor scraper to clean it up. I got the piece of glass custom cut to fit. The oils stay open (wet) for weeks in this way and last much longer.
Travel Watercolor Brushes
Travel Watercolour Brushes - 7 Set
Value Scale
Perfect Tool for determining Value in painting.
View Finder
My viewfinder is not as clean as this one as it's been used so much!! I use it both in the studio sometimes to find still life set ups and outdoors to simplify my landscapes and narrow down the options.
Water Brush
Water Brush with an Easy to Squeeze Barrel - perfect for taking minimal supplies.
Watercolour Brushes Travel set
I love this set of watercolour brushes as they keep a fantastic point, come in three sizes and they have the cap to protect them when put away.
Wipe out Tool
This wipeout tool or Kemper tool is fantastic for “drawing'“ on the canvas by wiping paint off. I use it for signing my paintings too.
