paint tube
Artist's color source
A paint tube is a small, squeezable metal or plastic container holding artist's paints.
The collapsible design, invented in the nineteenth century, let painters work outdoors without mixing pigments on site—a development that enabled Impressionism.
You squeeze paint from the tube onto a palette: She rolled the tube from the bottom to get the last of the cadmium yellow.
