Sennelier Hands-Free Watercolor Box Collection: A New Standard of Comfort and Performance

Watercolor artists know well: the quality of tools directly impacts the quality of their work. The Sennelier Hands-Free Watercolor Box Collection, with its half-pans, brings a new dimension to the painting experience. Available in three formats – 12, 18, and 24 half-pans – these boxes are not just color reservoirs but creative partners. In addition to a water brush included in each box, this collection stands out with a clever innovation: a tripod thread compatible with photographic tripods and articulated arms.

Sennelier Quality: Chromatic Excellence

Sennelier is a brand recognized and respected in the watercolor world for its exceptional pigment quality. Each half-pan in this collection contains pure, finely ground, and perfectly balanced pigments to offer rich and luminous colors. Although this collection uses fine watercolors with a slightly lower pigment concentration than extra-fine watercolors, it is perfect for beginning watercolorists. The formulation of Sennelier watercolors allows harmonious mixes, excellent transparency, and high lightfastness, ensuring the longevity of artworks.

Flexibility and Variety:
12 Half-Pan Box: Ideal for beginners or those who prefer a compact yet versatile selection of essential colors.
18 Half-Pan Box: A perfect balance for intermediate artists, offering a wider range of shades while remaining portable.
24 Half-Pan Box: Designed for enthusiasts, this box offers the most comprehensive palette, allowing unlimited creative exploration.

Each box comes with a Reservoir Brush, a practical and tool that allows painting outdoors without the need for an additional water container. Additionally, the half-pans are interchangeable, allowing artists to replace colors as needed, including with extra-fine colors for those seeking even more intense shades.

Innovation: The Universal Thread

What truly differentiates the Sennelier boxes from their competitors is the integration of a thread on the back of each box. This thread, identical to that used by cameras, opens up a world of possibilities for artists:

Compatibility with Tripods and Articulated Arms**: The boxes can be securely fixed on all standard tripods and articulated arms commonly used in photography. This allows artists to work hands-free, facilitating painting techniques and color mixing.
Attachment to Easels and Artist Seats**: When painting outdoors, it is often difficult to find a stable surface to place your tools. Thanks to this innovation, Sennelier boxes can be attached directly to easels or seats, offering incomparable comfort.
Freedom and Mobility**: Artists painting outdoors, often faced with challenging working conditions, will particularly appreciate this feature. No more juggling with the paint box, brushes, and paper. The Sennelier box can be fixed in a snap, allowing total concentration on the artwork.

Comfort and Ergonomics: A Revolution for Artists

The ability to fix the watercolor box on a tripod or articulated arm radically transforms the painting experience.

Use of Both Hands: Unlike traditional boxes that often require holding the palette with one hand, Sennelier boxes allow artists to use both hands fully. This simplifies handling and allows for smoother, more precise gestures.
Reduction of Fatigue: Painting for long periods can be exhausting, especially if you have to hold your palette. With Sennelier boxes, fatigue is reduced, allowing for longer and better painting sessions.
Stability and Security: Fixed on a tripod or articulated arm, the box is not at risk of falling or tipping over. Artists can work serenely, without fear of losing or wasting their precious colors.

Artist Feedback: A Welcome Change

Clara, outdoor artist: "This box allowed me to rediscover painting outdoors. Fixed on my easel, I can fully concentrate on my art without worrying about the balance of my palette."
Julien, professional watercolorist: "The quality of the pigments is exceptional, but what really won me over is the thread. It's a simple but revolutionary idea that changes everything."

Made in France: A Guarantee of Quality

These watercolors are made in France, in Sennelier's factories in Saint-Brieuc, ensuring high-quality production that meets European standards. Local manufacturing also ensures strict quality control and reduces the carbon footprint, contributing to a responsible ecological approach.
