Abstract: There is provided herein an artist's palette that comprises a coated paper product that is formed into a container for containing paint that is used in painting. In some embodiments, the coating will be silicone or acrylic which will tend to make the paper impervious to paint. In some embodiments, the container might take the form of a generally rectangular shape with sidewalls. In other embodiments, the inventive palette might be accompanied by a matching lid which could be made of the same or similarly treated paper. In some further embodiments, the invention might be constructed with some number of internal compartments into which different colored paints could be placed. In such an instance, the internal walls in an embodiment would utilize the same coated paper as was utilized in the palette.
