Sonny Williams Oil Painting Tuition
Palette
A good palette is an invaluable item for successful colour mixing.
This is a 81 x 61cm sheet of plain white furniture board as available in hardware
shops for building kitchen units, etc. You may also use a sheet of glass (with edges sanded) painted white on the underside or with a sheet of white paper underneath. Large plain white ceramic tiles work well also.
The hand-held palettes that are available in art shops are not suitable for real colour mixing with a palette knife, although you may find them useful for painting outdoors.
