Sterling Edwards Big Brush Palette

The Sterling Edwards Palette is a professional-grade mixing tool designed for watercolour artists who work with large brushes and layered washes. Measuring 12 × 16 inches, this heavyweight resin plastic palette offers durability and ample space.

To begin with, it includes 14 individual paint wells—10 measuring 1″ × 2½″ and 4 measuring 1″ × 2″. Additionally, the palette features 8 slanted glazing wells, ideal for pre-mixing large quantities of color.

Because the wells are deep and slanted, they help retain moisture and prevent contamination. Moreover, the central mixing area (8¼″ × 7¼″ × ¼″ deep) provides generous space for blending.

Whether you’re glazing, layering, or switching colors mid-wash, this palette supports fluid transitions. In fact, the lid doubles as an extra mixing surface, making it perfect for travel or studio use.

Not only does it accommodate brushes up to 2 inches wide, but it also keeps color mixes consistent throughout your painting process.

Use it for:

• Large-scale watercolour washes
• Pre-mixing glazing colours
• Organized studio setups
• Efficient colour transitions
