View Patent ↗An apparatus and method for illuminating a work area for applying a wall composition. An illuminated wall composition pan provides a lightweight, self-contained carrier for a workspace illumination. The illuminated wall composition pan is configured to retain a protective liner to prevent the pan from becoming soiled by the wall composition. It is also light weight, and a carrier may be provided to assist holding the illuminated wall composition pan. The illuminated wall composition pan includes an elongate tray 18 dimensioned to contain a volume of wall composition and has a length to contain a wall composition applicator tool. The pan has a first end face and a second end face, a front wall, and a back ball. A first plurality of high brightness LED lights are disposed in a spaced apart relation about the first end face and a rechargeable battery carried in the second end face.
