we should play guess the movie... lol :-) I have no idea though... sorry... The closest i will get is the scene from a james bond (possibly living daylights???) when he finds Stella dead on the bed after her husband been eaten by a shark :-)

As for wet palettes. i love mine. i make 5 or 6 ready to go. and then when painting takes me i just get my squeeze bottle of water... wet the tissue under the baking paper. and off i go. they are all in A4 clear folders from kmart. so they stack and will stay wet for days if i need them too (though i find the paint consistency deteriorates sometimes, especially with ultramarine blue). then when i want to paint its a quick affair to squeeze out some paint and lid shut for a break. Also if i run out of space i dont need to clean up i just open the next folder read to go.

Then i just batch clean them i keep the paper bits.. because one day i have plans to paper a wall in all the dead wet palatte bits. lol.

This way the prep and set up is never a reason for me not to paint and i can take my palette (granted carefully) somewhere else and keep going.

This method was a game changer for me for the same reason. not wanting to set up and clean up. :-)

    I found it! I was scrolling through horror category so I remembered lol. It was this. A film from 1971, so you weren't far from the year it was made. :D

    Ah yeah I only have a tray with no air tight lid, and the temporary lid only extends it for 48h maybe. I agree with the paint consistency though, if I let it stay there for too long they become too runny and I wouldn't want it on my paper sketchbook. XD I definitely need to buy an air tight lid. That's pretty smart tho, clean them all at the same time! :D

    I recently just started putting my wet gouache from the tube to watercolor pans (empty palette) and dry them just so I could just use that when I'm lazy. Acrylics and gouache are so different tho so will need a learning curve for it but still good for days when I just want a quick paint.
