Other stuff I use when I'm painting :
- Palette, what else, I use the Skip Lawrence palette. I prefer a palette without deep wells. A butchers tray is great.
- I tape Kilimanjaro paper to a piece of tile board (masonite with a white plastic surface). The board is ideally 1 inch large than the paper. I have an assortment of scrapping tools like palette knives, pocket knives, and even something called a bone folder (buy at a stationary store).
- Those painting with acrylics will have to choose your own palette as I can't remember the names. I do paint in acrylics and have equel affection for them.
