a combination palette

Sometimes I want to use subtle, muted watercolors for a sketch. And other times, the sketch subject calls for bright colors. Instead of needing to change which Pocket Palette I grab, I put both muted and bright palettes in one.

UPDATE: After posting this, I removed the warm Volcano Red and added my favorite cool green, Jadeite genuine. I can easily mix a warm red by adding a yellow or gold to quin. rose, and jadeite is such a lovely bright green! I especially love jadeite mixed with ultramarine. 

Potters pink is not bright on its own but is a great base for skin colors. And it makes the most wonderful grays when mixed with cobalt turquoise light!
