An adjustable brush treatment device has a flexible attachment between two lobes or textured portions. Each portion has a textured surface adapted for rinsing or cleaning cosmetic brushes, and an opposite surface adapted for placement of the device in a working area with the textured surfaces presented for engagement with a brush head or applicator. A tab or coupling member is provided for coupling the device about a user's hand, with the textured surfaces presented on opposite sides.

An artist's container having a bottom wall and a peripheral wall of non-uniform height surrounding the bottom wall. The peripheral wall defines a footprint of the container when viewed from the top. The container includes one or more interior walls positioned within the footprint of the container to divide the interior into a plurality of storage compartments. The container also includes a plurality of support posts. The plurality of support posts extend to varied heights above the bottom wall such that an imaginary support plane is collectively defined by the tops of the plurality of support posts. The support plane is inclined relative to the bottom wall and is configured to support an artist's palette near the edges of the palette.

Disclosed herein is a pop-up or three-dimensional gloss card including a substantially flat gloss layer having at least one color chip with a predetermined gloss finish, and a top layer defining at least one window. The top layer is positioned on top of the gloss layer so that the at least one color chip is visible through the at least one window. The gloss card also has an activator that reversibly bends the gloss layer so that the at least one color chip protrudes through the at least one window to exhibit the gloss finish of the color chip.

An art kit to create artwork limited only by the creator's imagination irrespective of the creator's artistic skills, knowledge, and artistic experience comprising at least one substrate, at least one masking appliqu, at least one set of art media and at least one picture frame configured to fit around said at least one substrate. The substrate can chosen from the group of substrates consisting of paper, cardboard, textile, canvas. The masking appliqu comprises a thin flexible plastic sheet held on a backing sheet by a low tack adhesive and at least one shape capable of providing a pictorial theme to the artwork, so distinctive that the art kit can function as a souvenir.

The home repair system includes a storage container having internal compartmental divisions, the storage container includes a hinged top cover, a bottom, four side walls, at least one divider wall, an internal organizer, a handle, at least one hinge, at least one lock. The storage container provides organized secured storage of a minor home repair kit and said hand tools and repair materials for remote use.

A carrying case for wet canvas. The carrying case includes a base having a sidewall extending perpendicularly away therefrom, thereby defining an interior volume. A lid is securable to the sidewall, such that the lid encloses the interior volume when secured thereto. A tension bar is disposed on the base within the interior volume, wherein the tension bar can telescopically move between an extended position and a retracted position. A linear distance between a first side of the tension bar and a second side of the tension bar is greater when in the extended position. The first and second ends are designed to frictionally engage an interior surface of a canvas frame, thereby maintaining a position of the canvas within the interior volume such that an exterior of the canvas is preserved.

The present invention is directed to a brush cleaning device that thoroughly and efficiently cleans brushes. The brush cleaning device comprises a main body having a base, wherein the interior of the base is substantially bowl-shaped; an insert, have a gross agitation surface and a fine agitation surface, wherein the insert fits within the base in a manner that forms a plurality of cleaning solution wells, each cleaning well substantially isolated from one another; and a lid, wherein the interior of the lid is substantially bowl-shaped and wherein the lid may be secured to the base in a manner that prevents the leakage of any cleaning fluid held within the base.

A color selection and display system. A computing device comprises a display, a memory storing a color matrix comprising a plurality of virtual paint chips each virtual paint chip representing a specified paint color, a user interface configured for receiving input data identifying a selected color and a processor configured to control the display to automatically display the color matrix such that the selected color is highlighted in the virtual paint chip arrangement. In embodiments, a retail paint chip display comprises a plurality of paint chips in a specified layout such that the relative location of each virtual paint chip in the color matrix corresponds to the layout of the retail paint chip display. In embodiments, a rendered scene is displayed based on a base image and at last one paintable surface defined by a plurality of locations in the base image.
