What are Plastic Watercolour Palettes?

A plastic watercolour palette is a lightweight, water-resistant tool for mixing and storing watercolour paints. Made from durable plastic, these palettes typically feature shallow and deep wells, flat mixing areas, and are often shaped for comfort and portability.

Why Do Artists Use Plastic Watercolour Palettes?

Artists use plastic watercolour palettes for their practicality. They're easy to clean, lightweight, affordable, and available in a variety of formats, including palettes with multiple wells, secure lids, and even folding designs. Whether in the studio or outdoors, they’re a convenient and reliable option. ‘An extra palette will offer more room for colour mixing, on top of the palette area offered in most watercolour paint boxes. If you’re going to want your colour mixes on another day, or if you need to transport your colours, a palette with a lid will protect your mixed paint as well as offer even more palette space.’ - Lisa Takahashi, ‘ Watercolour Painting for Beginners ’, Jackson’s Art Blog
