Guerrilla Painter Backpacker 6 by 8 Watercolor Palette

I just loved this smaller, compact, yet big enough to carry alot of paints palette! The plastic is very, very sturdy, not flimsy, not thin like the others. This is a quality palette. I bought it to put those paints I just know I really want with me but don't want to fill up the large wells on my Pike Palette (another excellent choice). This fits inside the mixing area on my Pike Palette and I can travel with it this way, only taking up the same amount of space as my original palette. Certainly, thinking of getting another one because its so sturdy and easy to use, loved the size. I don't have a Guerilla Plein Air product, only this. I actually have the setup from "Plein Air Pro", which comes with a nice messenger bag that carries my tripod, easel and palette. So, my space was limited on taking another palette with me. I was hoping this would work and it's height is perfect, quality is 100% and I know any artist would love this. I use it for all of my earth colors, Bt. Sienna, etc and some of those wild colors like Quinacridone Coral that I wouldn't give an entire well to on my main palette, but so love to use.

This palette fits quite nicely into my art bag and is great for using outdoors. Compact and quicky cleaned. I use the cover portion to mix watercolors and set the brushes down.

I bought this especially to use with the Guerrilla thumbox. Its not bad it just doesn't fit all that well considering its an accessory for the thumbox. Its is loose in the box rather than snugly so it moves around too easily when carrying the box.

I put the small palette in my new Guerrilla painter backpacker box. It fits great. I have not put any paint in it yet, but just got it for my Christmas gift. I took the box on location in Old Sacramento last weekend. It was windy and the box wiggled on top of the camera tripod a little. I used some other small palette that I have and did 3 paintings within 2 hours. I did 12" x 16" Arches 140 lb CP block paper for the H Street Golden Bridge and Joe's Crab Shack. Then, I turned to the North and did the Delta King Paddle Wheeler Ship and the railroad bridge and Sacramento River on 11" x 15" Canson 140 lb. CP paper. Then, I did another painting on Yupo paper about 10" by 14". The first painting I did seating and kept the palette inside the box. On the second and third painting, I painted standing. The wind was cold and the overcast made it more difficult to see any shadows. People would say that it looks like fun. An old Chinese fellow, I think, wanted to paint, but his wife wanted to move on to go shopping.

I will put some tube paints in this palette soon and take on various locations. I am a member of the Sacramento Plein Air group and a few others. I should get a lot of use out of this palette. Sometimes, I use several palettes at the same time, because I want a wider variety of colors to chose from.

I bought this for a watercolor journaling class and we needed portable supplies. This probably isn't the best for that use, but it would be fine for a home setup that you don't have to travel with.
