Artists don't generally have a reputation for being neat and well-organized. A more common mental image is that of a paint-covered bohemian with tubes of paint littering a studio that hasn't had a good cleaning in years. This set-up may work fine if you can keep track of all of your paints, but what happens when you just can't find that tube of International Klein blue during that crucial stage in the development of your masterwork? Or when you want to travel out to the meadow to paint outside? Do you really want to spend an hour rounding up all the paints you want to take with you? Having a place to store your paints will make you a more efficient painter and may even improve your paintings.
