The Strathmore 300 Series Palette Paper Pad 9" x 12" is an essential tool for any artist working with acrylics, gouache, concentrated watercolor, or water-mixable oils. Designed for convenience and efficiency, it offers a clean, practical alternative to traditional palettes—without the hassle of constant cleaning.
The pad includes 40 sheets of 67gsm paper with a smooth surface and a special synthetic coating that prevents paint from being absorbed. Instead of soaking into the paper, the paint stays on the surface, allowing for smooth, controlled mixing and extended working time. This makes it easier to blend colors accurately, adjust tones, and make the most out of every drop of paint.
The coated surface also helps prevent paint from sticking, which means less waste and more flexibility during your process. While intended as a disposable palette solution, many artists find that the surface can be wiped clean with a damp cloth or baby wipe—allowing for reuse depending on the medium and technique.
Lightweight and easy to use, this pad is perfect for studio work, painting classes, workshops, and plein air sessions. It eliminates the need to carry bulky plastic or wooden palettes, making it an ideal choice for artists who value portability, cleanliness, and efficiency.
Whether you're mixing bold acrylic colors, subtle gouache tones, or experimenting with water-mixable oils, this palette paper keeps your workflow simple and focused on what matters most—your art.
