If well cared for I don’t see why they wouldn’t last your entire career.
They aren’t cheap, but they are very well made and I think well worth the price. You can purchase the palette finished or unfinished and save a little money, but I recommend paying the extra and purchasing the finished palette because they are so beautifully made. I like my handheld palette, as opposed to a flat or fixed palette because I can hold it right up next to the area I am painting, or put it on my lap, sit with it or stand. The natural wood finish version doesn’t need the rubber gasket because it has a contoured opening that is nice.Īvante-Garde version of the Expressionist Confidant The grey also has a rubber gasket around the thumb hole that is nice. The weight difference is definitely noticeable, but the grey version is still comfortably light. They also have a hardwood version (the Avant-Garde) that is painted with a grey enamel (I think it is enamel) that weighs in at 1 lbs. The natural wood palette comes in under a pound at 13.6 oz. I have been using mine nearly everyday for 5 years and it is still in excellent shape.Įxpressionist Confidant fully loaded out and still plenty of mixing room
It is one of the smaller palettes from New Wave. When I first used one it made we wonder how it has taken this long to have a palette with this design.īelow is my Expressionist Confidant. It’s shape has a curve that fits high on your arm and hip that feels perfect. The first thing that you will notice when you pick up the palette and tuck in into your arm is the ergonomics of it. For one of my recent posts I showed a shot of my palette and I thought it would be good to have an official review of the product.
