Pleinly Watercolor Painting System – Benefits

PAINT ANYWHERE – SAME WORKFLOW INDOORS & OUTDOORS

1️⃣ Paint Anywhere – Same Setup Indoors & Outdoors

The Pleinly Painting System allows you to move seamlessly between home studio and outdoor painting while keeping the same comfortable and ergonomic setup. Your painting position, tools and workflow remain familiar wherever you paint.

ERGONOMICS & NATURAL PAINTING MOVEMENT

2️⃣ Paint Sitting or Standing – Always at the Right Height

The palette and paper remain aligned at the same angle, allowing light to hit both surfaces in the same direction. This helps you see colors and mixtures more accurately, so what you mix is closer to what you see on paper

3️⃣ Minimal Hand Movement – Natural & Efficient Workflow

Water cups, palettes, tools and paper are positioned close to each other on the same level, reducing unnecessary hand movement. This allows faster painting, smoother brush handling and helps reduce shoulder fatigue during longer painting sessions

CONTROL OF WATER & PAINTING TECHNIQUE

4️⃣ Fast & Precise Paper Tilting

The rotary tilt handle allows quick angle adjustments and secure locking. The board can be tilted approximately +45° to −45°, giving full control over water flow and wash behavior — essential in watercolor painting.

Tip: Fill the water cup to about 75% capacity to prevent overflow when the board is tilted.

5️⃣ Paint Freely on Loose Sheets

The included 16×12″ backing board allows painting on loose sheets by taping paper directly onto a waterproof surface. This enables wetting the paper from both sides and supports longer alla prima sessions.

MODULAR SYSTEM & FORMAT FLEXIBILITY

6️⃣ Modular Layout – Adapt to Your Painting Method

Cups, palettes and paper positions can be arranged according to your preferred workflow. The system supports horizontal or vertical formats and can be mirrored for left-handed painters.

7️⃣ Same Paper Across Sketchbooks & Loose Sheets

Pleinly sketchbooks and loose sheets use the same artist-grade papers within each series (L-Type and C-Type). You can switch between formats without changing technique or paint handling.

TRANSPORT & OUTDOOR PRACTICALITY

8️⃣ Transport Wet Paintings Securely

The Wet Panel Carrier allows safe transport of wet paintings without touching the painted surface. It supports sketchbooks, loose sheets, watercolor blocks, panels and canvases in multiple sizes.

9️⃣ Portable & Fast to Set Up

Despite its stability, the system remains lightweight and quick to assemble. Components pack into a backpack, allowing hands-free transport and easy setup even in changing outdoor conditions.

DESIGNED FOR LONG-TERM USE

🔟 Designed & Tested in Finland

The system has been designed and tested over five years by a plein air painter and engineer. Stainless steel hardware, reinforced stitching and weather-resistant finishes ensure long-term reliability.

1️⃣1️⃣ Built as a Long-Term System

Many components are available separately, allowing replacement or expansion over time. The system is designed to grow with the artist rather than be replaced.
