What Are the Different Types of Art Palettes?
Art palettes come in various shapes, sizes, and materials, each catering to different painting techniques and mediums. Wooden palettes are commonly associated with oil painting due to their durability and smooth blending surface. Acrylic artists often favour disposable palettes or those made from non-porous plastic to prevent paint absorption. Watercolour palettes typically feature wells and mixing areas to control fluid pigment application. Some palettes are handheld, offering mobility, while larger palettes rest on work surfaces, providing extended space for complex blends. Understanding these different types allows artists to select palettes that complement their preferred painting style and workflow. Choosing the right palette enhances convenience, ensures proper paint handling, and supports more efficient mixing and application techniques across various artistic projects.

Palette design directly affects an artist's efficiency and creative flow, offering both functional and ergonomic benefits. Handheld palettes with thumb holes provide mobility, while larger stationary palettes accommodate extensive colour mixing. The design must balance comfort and practicality, ensuring artists can access their colours without disrupting their painting rhythm. Certain palettes feature separate wells for pigments, while others offer flat surfaces for free blending. Watercolour palettes, for instance, rely heavily on structured wells to maintain pigment integrity. Ergonomic designs reduce strain during long sessions, enhancing an artist's ability to focus on creativity rather than palette handling. Well-thought-out design simplifies colour accessibility, improves control, and reduces unnecessary interruptions in the creative process.
