      Is it really a painting desk without a Red Grass Palette somewhere on it?

    What a lovely video. I've owned and used a wet pallet for a couple of years now, but I have always been uncertain of how much water I needed to put into it, and I didn't consider flipping the paper to get it wet on both sides.
    I'll look forwards to you guy's video on thinning paints. I feel i often struggle with them getting to wet on my pallet.

    Im from denmark, and i have been struggeling with finding parchment paper with the right properties, maybe you have a tip for that, more soo because Magnus is danish :P

      Hi Zaxens! Magnus currently uses Reynolds Parchment Paper which he had to import. Looking at Amazon, you can get three rolls for about 170 Danish Krone, which is quite pricey but should be enough for a few years of painting.

      Hey man! I'll keep it in english just so others can understand, but.. I stuggled the same. 'Madpapir' splits when you mix and lets paint seep through and a lot of 'Bagepapir' for ovens let nothing through at all. I used brown bakingpaper for quite some time, but it was never perfect. I defo recommend getting some rolls of Reynold's. While it does cost something to import I think it is well worth and it is better than Redgrass original paper and it outperforms any kind of baking/parchment I have tried, and I have tried A LOT!
      Depending on how often you paint, I'd say a roll of Reynold's should last you maybe a year or something like that :)

      I use the one that is Reynold’s Parchment. Mine has cutting grids, but it doesn’t have to have that
