		A palette knife is a blunt knife with a very flexible steel blade and no sharpened cutting edge.

	Howard Behrens Biography, preference of the palette knife over the paintbrush
		Classically trained and intensely focused, Howard Behrens' paintings are dramatic, intense, alive with color and texture -- and unique in his preference of the palette knife over the paintbrush.
		But one fact always puzzled me. The color of the paint on the palette was so much brighter, more exciting than the paint on the canvas.
		The western landscape lent itself to being more spontaneous -- and using the palette knife instead of the brush allowed me to work with the paint much more quickly while retaining the pure, vivid color of the paints.

		Wooden studio palettes are traditionally made of Mahogany in a kidney shape with thumb hole and finger grip, held along the forearm between elbow and wrist.
		Any palette after all, is your 'thinking ground', a place where you mix colours, judge their properties, make decisions.
		The type of palette is very much a personal choice, a large palette is very useful if you are standing at an easel, not so vital if you prefer to be seated or of course you can make your own or adapt any suitable surface.

	Howard Behrens, American Master of the palette knife
		Using the knife, the artist captures not only the softness of clouds, but also the boldness of mountains, the vibrancy of flowers, and the strength of water.
		Behrens moves the palette knife furiously as he applies deep, rich color in many layers to achieve dimension and mood.
		Behrens is also a classicist in his approach to composition so that there is plenty of room for the eye to rest and the imagination to wander, touring distant horizons around the world taking in crystal coves, wispy palms, pink villas, and stunning overlooks in the artist's paintings of these exotic places.
