Our new Empty Palette option allows you to build precisely the palette you want. But how do you know what that is?
Setting up a palette is personal and depends on your preferences as an artist. Our range of palette and pan sizes lets you customize your layout to your needs.
Start with an empty Demi Palette, Pocket Palette, or Folio Palette. Then, choose your pans!
Four Paint Pan Sizes
Mini Pans are perfect for colors you like but don’t need to use all the time. Fill them with convenience colors or something fun like glitter paint. You can also use them to carry two of a light color, like yellow, so that you have one for mixing and one that stays clean!
Standard Pans are versatile and can accommodate larger brushes. Lay them out in the direction that you fill your brush!
Double Pans and Large Pans are ideal when you want to work with big brushes and stock up on your favorite color.
Once you’ve selected your pans and colors, consider filling your pan halfway so you can easily drag your brush across the paint. Then find an arrangement in the palette that works for you! Maria likes to work from warm colors to cool, while others prefer to build their palette out in triads, with convenience colors at the bottom.

Three Mixing Pan Sizes
Our Small, Large, and XL Mixing Pans are great for adding extra mixing space to your palette. Our Mixing Pans contain the same durable mixing surface as our palette lids, and are compatible in size and function with our paint pans, so they integrate seamlessly into your palette arrangement.
