Inventor Barry says:
'Since I have been a full time artist I have spent more and more time painting 'en plein air' both at home and abroad. Over the years I have honed my painting equipment down to the minimum due mainly to the ever diminishing airline baggage allowances but also ease of carrying. In that time I have gone through a multitude of different palettes and boxes which have been either too big, too heavy or too EXPENSIVE !! So I decided to design and produce one myself !... and here it is !!!!!'

• Approx size when closed 4 1/2 " x 4 1/2" x 1 1/4 " ( 115mm x 15mm x 30mm )
• Made from durable white plastic

PLEASE NOTE: THE VIDEO SHOWS AN OLD VERSION OF THE PALETTE.. THE NEW PALETTE HAS ONE MIXING WELL IN THE LID AND NOT TWO AS SHOWN ON SOME OF THE SCENES.ON THE VIDEO.

FEATURES

- 2 trays with 4 deep mixing wells in each.
- 1 flat mixing tray which also forms a top on the paint compartment when closed.
- 1 deep lid with one deep mixing well.
- A removable central paint compartment with: 13 deep wells ideal for squeezed tube colours as well as full and half pans.
- A universal thumb plate for both left and righthanded painters.

The palette was originally designed to be used with tube paint but the whole pans and half pans supplied by Winsor & Newton fit in the box if you wish to use pans of paint (although they are a bit of a tight squeeze)
Note from the manufacturers about fitting empty pans into the Cloverleaf Paint Box: - "The only whole pans and half pans that fit perfectly in the paint box are those made by Winsor and Newton. Winsor & Newton old semi used pans fit in the palette and won't come out. If you are using a new pan then paint the sides with watercolor paint let it dry and push it in."
If you want to use tube colour, it can be squeezed straight into the palette.
The empty pans we sell on this web site to use with tube colour do not fit in this pallete.
