The colour of the palette itself can be a tool for the painter, a mid tone colour palette for example will give a different representation of how the colours will look on the painting compared to a lighter palette.  The size, shape and whether the palette is held or stationed plays a part in the physical rhythm of how an artist works creating a sense of muscle memory that is akin to the physical activity of a musician.
