I find that over and over I try to simplify my gear and lighten my
load--and since I want to be prepared for almost any sketching
contingency, it's not that easy!
Recently I've been exploring the fun little Pocket Palettes from
Expeditionary Arts--and Maria Coryell-Martin keeps refining and offering new types, formats, and kits! Check out her "toolkit" page at the
link...

Here
you see the original palette on the left and a newer model with a
brushed steel case (I think she's offering a traditional black one now
too, but I didn't see it on the page.) |

I know it's silly, but I'll keep carrying the original shiny
one because sometimes a girl just needs a mirror...or a signaling
device...or...and the little bag it comes in protects the finish! |

The
very first ones had small pans, like those on the right in the filled
palette, but many of us like to work with a larger brush, so Maria added
the square pans. Perfect!
