This really hits my collector, *ahem hoarder, tendencies! Love me some fun travel watercolor palettes!

[@Zenica204]

Maria (Art-Tool-Kit Co owner) redesigned the pans and the pocket palette a few years ago. You have one of her first versions. Her ones now are rust proof.

[@eurekawanders]

I see. The one that I have was sooo long ago. I am sure they have improved it. 👍🏻

[@kitpie13]

Smaller ones and larger ones are available now.

[@marissaswinghammer3149]

I had one of the original ones and it rusted and she replaced it. I’ve had the new ones for years now with heavy use. No rust.

[@mulle3574]

I use tube paints and made my own travel palettes from sweets tins and silicone ice cube trays cut to fit. They work perfectly and I mostly use water brushes when out. I make it work.

[@eurekawanders]

Oh silicon cube trays! Interesting. Can we press out and make blocks of watercolour paints with that?

[@halibut1249]

I have diff palettes but my fav is a ceramic cheese server plate; i squeeze out the colors and it has a big mixing area. my other travel palletes are limited to 3 to 5 wells. the micro palette looks good and can attach to one's watercolor jrnl. thanks for vid.

[@sararosa5436]

Wonderful❤❤❤

[@kimu.6227]

Wow! I haven’t seen many of these!!!! So exciting!

[@eurekawanders]

They are!

[@PaintinHiding]

i'm at 1:44 and i'm fangirling at all these small palettes! aaahhh 😆

[@pantalonious3984]

The paints in th tiny craft palette for your keychain are ctually not bad at all give them a try just spray them first they are pretty good ones, and the art tool kits now have rust proof pans you can get i do believe or you can enamel them yourself with spray enamel paint

[@elenitucker3582]

What a great collection, now I want to go shopping and add to mine😂🎨

[@positronixartandlife4545]

Gosh why did I never think about a pill organiser as a micro paint palette! I've been trying to find something in the UK which suits my purposes, and within a couple of minutes of looking up pill organisers I've found multiple options which look usable. Though that keychain watercolour palette looks adorable, I might see if I can find something like that

[@eurekawanders]

I have been visiting homeware stores and dollar stores to find new tiny containers after becoming a palette hoarder.

[@phillipstroll7385]

Yes, I'd love to see you use those palettes; please and thank you

[@sarajamal799]

interesting collection!

[@eurekawanders]

Thanks!

[@JoyAloha709]

Very informative and comprehensive!

[@eurekawanders]

Glad you think so!

[@E4Alabbasy]

13:48 omg the tiny sponge it's so cute 😂 I Love watching videos just discussing palettes 😍😍 holbein just released a plastic palette similar to the first one you showed but has removable plastic large pans, and Mijello released their new watercolor palette without the paint so you can customize the palette

[@eurekawanders]

Haha it’s so cute right!

[@eurekawanders]

Thanks for sharing! As you can see I have a serious palette hoarding issue….so no more palettes for a while 😅

[@montetiger866]

Thank you I have learnt so much! 😀

[@eurekawanders]

You are welcome

[@PaintinHiding]

i can tell the wooden one is very well made. so nice~ though i wouldn't buy it for myself, i'm still scared of mold haha. aaahhh in love with the tiny little one at 9:38. waaaaaaaait... what the heck, the arttoolkit paletet RUSTS?!!! aaaaahhh tiny palette queen alice! 😆 great video!!!!

[@eurekawanders]

I got one of the very first batch of portable palette so they prob have improved it. I read on their website that the pans are rust resistantx

[@Zenica204]

They indeed have improved the materials. I’ve relied on a Demi and pocket palette for years now. No rust at all. I use mine pretty much daily.

[@ChericeByler]

Fantastic, Thanks!

[@eurekawanders]

Welcome!

[@user-xr9re6fh9j]

amazing, I find a person have so many half pan palette, thank you for sharing.

[@eurekawanders]

Lol I have a weird obsession

[@mirascraftycorner]

Thank you for this great video! I’ve been looking for something compact and travel sized. I have a few things on my wishlist like the Windsor and Newton set and I’ve ordered a few tins and wooden sets to try out. I‘d love to see the two easel ones tested outdoors and see how the tripod version compares to the non tripod one

[@eurekawanders]

Got it!! The easel videos are coming right up!

[@debsmith7050]

Thanks. I really like these small travel palettes. Hope to see you painting in these palettes sometime :)

[@eurekawanders]

Which are the ones that you will like to see first?

[@debsmith7050]

Thanks for asking 💙 Please do what works best for you. I am however interested in the wooden palettes you showed/Charlie USK Palette and the Magnetic Wooden Palette with the clip. Do you know about Jared Cullum (KZbin) new channel " Watercolour Paintbox Museum"? I am especially intrigued by Joseph Mallord William Turner Leather Pocket Palette. New ones are sold by Peg and Awl/ I like the Tilda Leather Painters Palette :) Your channel is fun!

[@Ca0309]

Great haul! I’d love to see you use all of them and tell us your opinions. Specially the ash tray model, the pill box models+ 3d inserts and the easel model and the similar one with no-easel-clic-piece (hope you understood my english).

[@eurekawanders]

Thank you! I think I have reviewed the easel model. Which is the no easel click piece?

[@Ca0309]

Is the o e similar but that cant be attached to an easel

[@Ca0309]

@@eurekawandersyes, i took a look at your channel and saw that u used lots of them! Love your channel! How do you organize so many art materials? I’d love a video about that! Thanks for your channel! Cheers from Brasil!

[@creativecolours2022]

Hi Alice. That is a very nice collection of portable palettes. Generally speaking I don't particularly like the "transformer" kind of palette boxes, because though they are compact they need assembling something that is not the most convenient thing when you paint outdoors. Open this attach that etc. is more complicated than simply open a watercolour box and paint. My own favorite ultra portable box is a 16 colour wooden one custom made by Charlie's USK Factory and another one that I've made myself by customizing a cigarette case and contains a minimal 8 colour selection. These are my two most compact boxes for urban sketching.

[@eurekawanders]

It’s not just about assembly. It’s also about disassembly. 😒 would like to see your diy palette!

[@creativecolours2022]

@@eurekawandersIn fact I have two diy palettes. One for my studio and one for my sketching ( along with palette boxes as evereone else. But I'm completely clueless on how to make youtube videos! Generally speaking the sketching kit must be as simple as it can be. I've even abandoned sketchbooks for outdoor sketching because I want to make my life easier. I use now a clipboard and loosed sheets of the paper of my choice and I hold the essential ( only the essential) sketching tools in a small pouch and that because that is the easier and faster way to access them. Loose sheets of paper are more convenient because you can put them aside until they dry and move to the next sketch, something it is not possible when you sketch into a sketchbook. You have to wait for the first sketch to dry to go to the next, or wait without doing anything in order to apply the next watercolour wash. Look...If you want I can send you photos of my sketch kit. Just search for Marialena Greek watercolor artist and you will find my website.Send me an email there and I'll reply.

[@eurekawanders]

@@creativecolours2022 hey cool, I will check out your website.

[@creativecolours2022]

@@eurekawanders I'll be looking forward for your email and your next streaming.

[@Grassless24]

The tripod palette link doesn’t work anymore 😭 looked such a good idea too

[@ArtsiRosi]

I love so many in this video! Thanks so much for sharing. Unfortunately the links aren't working. Where did you get the instinct life one?

[@eurekawanders]

Unfortunately, all of these items are sourced from Taobao, and the links tend to become inactive after a short time.

[@dorianadesanto4158]

Hi Alice. Do you have links, or know where to find, the AP Magic Palette, and the one you showed after the Windsor & Newton field box? Thank you for this video! I love palettes, too.

[@sandfly60]

Yes, I wish I could get one like that.

[@norbertotrevino4075]

It would be very helpful if you would please write here in comments the names of the different products. Seems you didn't list all in the info box.

[@eurekawanders]

Oh I don’t have all the information unfortunately cos I sort of accumulated them through the years.

[@ERINMOORE-rf4uo]

😭I live in the US and many of the links don't work. Love the micro palettes with water containers.

[@eurekawanders]

That’s because they are direct taobao links and I don’t think they ship to US. 😞

[@norbertotrevino4075]

I'm in Mexico and these links don't work either. 😢

[@lizcharalambous9150]

Where did you buy the tiny purple palette? 😊

[@teohontech7141]

That is a lot of palettes

[@eurekawanders]

Haha yes! It’s my new obsession

[@christianebehr138]

Please let me know where you bought those nice pallettes 😊😊

[@eurekawanders]

Mostly from taobao. Which ones?

[@blukatzen]

What is the company that made the easel at time mark 538 I'd like to buy that one

[@eurekawanders]

The company is based on China. It’s called 亿摩多. I found the shop on china taobao but not on aliexpress.

@@eurekawanders the one with the tripod mount and handle. Can't find that yet on aliexpress and can't figure out Taobao to UK, but still interested. The one that fans out too! I already have that one on the way.
