"The only thing that might be a problem with this design is the placement of the palette. I mean if your painting is on an easel you could scoot it and your seat (if you use one) closer to the palette. But some people paint with their canvas attached to a wall or maybe, due to the layout of their studio, paint with their easel against the wall, which in this case, wouldn't work with this design because the palette is so far down the workstation. The painter would have to walk back and forth from the palette. Another drawback of having the palette in the middle of the workstation is that, if someone indeed moves their easel closer to the palette (which I don't know why you wouldn't. Who wants to walk back and forth when trying to match a color?) there's all the features that are to the left of the palette section that will be out of reach and unusable to the artist. "
