The palette that I used is the 8 well palette. It's convenient because you can premix up to 8 washes of colors before you begin painting. Palettes that have a flat open mixing area without divisions can cause your colors to accidentally spread into each other.

I also used the double wash bowl which has two sections for water. I like using one for washing my brushes out, and then the other is for clean water. That way I can preserve the clean water for washes without having it get muddied up from cleaning out water
