I have several palettes for various reasons. I have my main one porcelaine with colors I know really well, mostly Daniel Smith and M.Graham. Then I have an all D. Smith palette, an all M. Graham palette, and non granulation palette, and a “play” palette for all my new colors that I don’t know well yet. On top of that I have an all Schmincke palette and some other brands and others that are for plein air painting. I like to know the purpose of each palette.

@@catherinelevison3310 Thank you for this helpful comment. I love this explanation. It has really gotten my wheels turning. I love your palette with the colors you know very well too. It made me realize I want a dedicated palette with colors that speak to me the most, and work with my animal and bird paintings in particular, since that's where I go the most. I may put all of my other colors in one big palette for ease of use and section them off. But thanks to some comments here, I am a lot more clear! Wonderful!

I’m a new painter, complete beginner, but my brain can only cope with one brand of paints in one palette I couldn’t cope with them all mixed up

[@CreativeSojourn]

@@BeckysJourneyWithArt haha, thank you for that. I know what you mean, and then I think my brain can't cope with several palettes at once either... because I already have several brands of paints that I love. ha! I have seen people making palettes for certain paintings, or a certain feel...maybe a couple of those would be fun. I suppose it'll be a journey figuring it out. :)

@ maybe do one for each style so one for urban sketching, one for landscapes etc etc x

Now artists just paint squares?

[@CreativeSojourn]

Yes. In order to see the actual color of the paint, which looks different when wet, and then dried on paper. If you don’t do that, it is a lot harder to pick the right colors for your painting.
