This may be a little harder to reach the paper, or the palette/paint holder, depending on which side of the panel holder you'd but your paper. Gouache would be less troublesome.
A great thing about Gurney's setup is the light diffuser, I really need to find a white umbrella and a way to fix it, or something similar.
I've used a setup close to the one for previous setup (vid) for oils, works nicely fwiw.
