Why are there 12 paints but only 8 wells in the palette?

Your kit comes with 12 watercolor paints, and the wooden palette has 8 wells. We designed it this way on purpose, to keep your palette compact, light and easy to carry everywhere.

How to use all 12 colors

  • Fill the wells with your favorite colors for the day.
  • Mix new shades in the white mixing area.
  • When you'd like a different color, wipe a well clean with a damp cloth and swap in a new one.
