After more than almost a year of product development we have finally produced what I think is the world's finest studio palette for artists as well as a nice pallet table to hold it.
Mark, are you going to sell the neutral color you use to tone canvas? If so how much will a tube cost?
Yes, will will be selling it in a few weeks. $18 for 100ml. It will be ready to go pre-mixed with odorless mineral spirits to the perfect consistency. Unlike our regular Geneva oil colors, the canvas foundation stain should only be used with adequate ventilation (in an open garage for instance). It dries in 24 hours to a matte finish that matches our palette color.
The reject palettes are already sold out! shoot. I missed it by a mere few hours - it just shows what a great price that was! Thank you Mr. Carder - another fine video to watch over and over and over again .. You are so generous with your knowledge - it is much appreciated!
I received mine this week - first time mixing on glass they are fantastic - and I have noticed that my oils are not drying out so quick,...well made and adding value to my mixing - thanks

You might need a cover for the paint. I use the lid of a storage bin that is just the right size.
It could be taller though, because as the picture shows, my pile of blue paint is too high and touches the cover. I keep the brush in there too, because with the sticky brush dip, it picks up atmospheric fluff.
Yes a lid is on my shopping list, to keep the Maui dust out & critters, I use a screen print mesh box to cover the canvas, but a lid will be better for the paint @PaulB
I can't wait for the sale on Thursday! Just in time too because I am running very low on my yellow and my white has been out for a while now. My other tubes are very near their end so this is perfect timing.

Sigh, I’ll just sit here mixing up my SDM with a pop stick......

Yes, @Boudicca. Two years ago David said Oz was near the top of the to-do list in regard to selling outside the US. Still, I guess it's not a simple process. And at least he's given us the recipe for SDM. I badly want a glass pelatte but I can't wait any longer so I'm off to the glazier tomorrow.
Just received my palette (and I got the complete Geneva paints as well as Brush Dip) - I know I was here in 2012, but life happens, and now I'm settling down again. Thank you!
Tip: Make sure that palette knife has no burrs or sharp corners on it, or it *will* scratch that palette. I got 30+ scratches on mine before switching to a palette knife that is smooth. My scratchy palette knife looked a lot like yours.
this has obviously been asked and answered other places...what's the reason can't be sent to other countries?? can I get around that or is it about contents flammable chemicals or something??
@PaulB I just noticed the plastic bin lid you have put over your glass palette. Wonderful idea. I'm going to hunt around for one today. At this stage I've been keeping my palette in the fridge overnight, but space is a bit of a problem....
Hello, just wondering if any of the Geneva supplies are available anywhere in Melbourne or if I just need to order them online. Sorry if this has been covered previously! Cheers Sally
