My folding palette finally came in the mail today! I originally intended to buy a metal folding palette like the Holbein models; however, they’re just too expensive. I rather purchase more artist quality watercolor tubes than a pricey palette. I also didn’t want to get the filmsy $5 folding palettes at utrecht, so I met my palette preferences in the middle by purchasing a $11 folding palette online. I’m glad that I can finally keep my watercolors in the slanted wells of this palette as opposed to a circle palette with surround wrap. I plan to buy a bulk of W&N artist quality watercolors on ebay when I’ve gained enough money but until then I’ll just use my cotman set. I thank you guys greatly for requesting commissions. I don’t get an allowance and I’m unable to get a part-time job because my family can’t get another car for transporting to work, so commissions is a way I can buy some luxury here and there.
