For painters who already own their paint
The PleinScout bag, an engraved travel palette, a handmade journal, water cup, mister, pencil, eraser, clips and a sticker.
Founding Scouts · through December 31
PleinScout is on the App Store and Google Play. Instead of a Kickstarter, we're launching it ourselves, and the painters who join in the first two months become Founding Scouts. Your support pays for the custom field bag, and the rest of the planning tools.
