The masking tape URL leads to a $8. 69 roll of -artist- tape. Michael's sells decorative tape (decorated w/little quirky colored designs on tape less adhesive than masking tape) that sells at $1 for two rolls. That's supposedly a -sale- price but my Michael's always seems to have it in stock at that price. I've been using it for some time now. It never tears, falls off the paper (even when wet w/water or paint) and best of all - it has never ripped away even a tiny sliver of paper when removed (which regular masking tape did incessantly no matter which tips or tricks I used. In Paris, I asked a gendarme, -How do you get to the Louvre? - He replied, -Keep painting! -

I really enjoyed your video. I feel like so many people get caught up in needing a ton of crap to go out and paint. You have simplified it to the most needed and the most simple to use. That is what you want to paint. Not a bunch of crap to get distracted by. Thank you.

Brandon. Thank you for this and all the videos. You've been a god-send in my late-start carreer. If you need a dad-what I'M good at-I'm here. LOL. I just made a cigar pochade box that I fit everything into and a killer fold-out chair. Still a pretty tight kit.

This is an awesome set-up and exactly what I needed to know. I tried to paint outdoors this weekend and dropped my palette/water dish three times in a row. Your set-up will help a lot! Thanks!

Good video. Helped me a lot to set up watercolor plein air painting without bringing a lot of gear. Very simplified which I may modify but very helpful video. Thank you.

Brandon, when I get some elastic mop rags made that I need for plein air gouache--that will just slide on and then can be tossed in the wash--I'll send you a couple.

I say -ditto- to the Thomas McAuley comment. I needed to see how things went together. I was looking for extremely portable; and you have it down. Thanks so much.

When you squeeze the tube paint into the palette does it need to lay flat in the bag or does it not run everywhere? Or does it have to dry before you transport it?

That is a very cool setup! I just bought a pallet like that and was trying to figure out what the hole was for lol duh, that makes sense. Thanks for the tips!

I would not put that stuff on my skin. Many paints still contain heavy metals. That's why it's also not okay just pour the dirty water out into the nature.
