MEEDEN 7-Well Studio Porcelain Paint Palette Tray,Artist Mixing Colour Tray by 4-3/4 Inches for Watercolor Gouache Painting,Round,White

Arrived well packaged to prevent damage. Product is great for water color or acrylic painting with much easier cleanup than a plastic tray. I have a different style I have been using for months and decided to get a smaller one as well which is a great size for travel. This is a great value especially when you consider how much easier it is to clean ceramic over plastic. I would recommend these trays to anyone that paints with the prior mentioned mediums.

This is perfect for my acrylic paints. The sections aren't too big or too small, just right. Heavy enough so that it doesn't go sliding to spill like plastic types and easy to clean.

Great for mixing paints

Absolutely love this little ceramic paint pallet. It's the perfect size for small art and limited space, and cleans out easily.

Perfect to oil and Acrilyc paint. Easy to wash

I am an artist who commonly uses acrylic paint. This ceramic mixing dish is perfect for when i want to mix up a substantial amount of a given color and especially when I want a few different shades in substantial amounts. Without a dish like this, one struggles with paint spreading too far on the pallet and it gets more difficult to manage the more the quantity you are mixing. The dish is just about the right size and shape with each area on the dish holding at least an ounce of paint. (Figure two tablespoons). I knocked a star off of the overall review because mine is not perfectly flat on the bottom, so that it rocked/wiggled a little bit if you applied pressure to one certain side of the dish. I speak in past tense because I easily fixed this by placing a small felt pad on the bottom of the dish in the right location to stop the wiggling (A pad like the kind you use for protection of a hardwood floor from furniture feet). Even if I didn’t bother to do that, the dish would still have been totally functional. I am just a perfectionist by nature. Overall very happy with this item. It is easily cleaned and well shaped for its function.

I’m very new to watercolors, well any thing artistic really so don’t have the most expensive paints. They were always beading etc in the plastic pallet my paints came with. An artist friend suggested I get a porcelain one. I ordered this one and it arrived on time and in great condition. I was blown away at the difference it made. I will absolutely recommend this to everyone!

I can't have too many of these: each porcelain palette gets a generous squeeze of paint in 2-3 wells, plus something like neutral tint in the middle well (depending on the painting; I might use a buff titanium or PY173 as the "mixer"), and I use the empty wells for mixing. I'll have one or two for the primary colors, a third for "neat" paint (no water), and the messiest phthalos may get their own tray (or two) as well —with tons of kitchen roll under it LOL. I also use a flat Meeden porcelain for paints+mediums (like Aquapasto or oxgall) that I'm not going to keep "active" too long (I like to start the next painting session fresh with the flat porcelain palette mostly cleaned off, maybe 1-2 squeezes of neat paint if there's enough left to matter).
