Jimmie I have never counted but I use various brands, the largest being Unison. It doesn't hold as many as you mention, but that's way too many to be traveling with anyway. I always pick a palette of what I am working on and through them in tupperware lined with a 1/2" of corn meal.

Less is more...

I've heard that statement plenty of times, but with my sense of color, I need as many as possible. I don't want to settle on a color becuase I don't have the right one with me.

Working on this one, I had a color in mind to use in the background, but wasn't happy with the choices I had. I waited until I got home to finish it, because I knew I had the color I wanted in the set of Doaks that I did'nt take with me, and it worked perfect (or close to perfect).

The more the merrier... (not people, just pastels)

Thanks again Beth!
