1. A multifunction device for cleaning and spin drying a paint roller cover from water soluble paints, for cleaning a paint brush from water soluble paints, and for storing painting tools, said device comprising: a vertically oriented enclosure supported by four leg members, said enclosure comprising:a back wall;a front wall;a first side wall;a second side wall;a top wall; anda bottom wall;wherein a vertical line of division runs parallel with said front and back walls of said enclosure thereby dividing said enclosure into a front section defining a door and a back section defining a housing, said housing comprising said back wall and a portion of each of said first side wall, said second side wall, said top wall and said bottom wall extending outwardly away from said back wall towards said front wall, said door comprising said front wall and a portion of each of said first side wall, said second side wall, said top wall and said bottom wall extending outwardly away from said front wall towards said back wall, said door being hingedly connected to said housing and secured in a closed position with latches;at least one discharging hole on said bottom wall portion of said housing;a rectangular washing opening on said top wall portion of said housing;a splash guard inside said housing by said washing opening;a carrying handle;a paint roller holder assembly;a paint brush cleaning surface; andat least one painting tool holder. 2. The device of claim 1, wherein said door is hingedly connected to said housing with hinges, said hinges being attached to a first side of said door and to a first side of said housing such that said door can traverse between an opened position and the closed position; and wherein said latches are attached to a second side of said door and to a second side of said housing to secure said door in said closed position. 3. The device of claim 1, wherein said at least one painting tool holder includes at least one paint brush holder, at least one paint roller cover holder and at least one paint roller extension pole holder. 4. The device of claim 1, wherein said washing opening extends parallel to said front and back walls of said enclosure. 5. The device of claim 1, wherein said at least one discharging hole allows the escape of washing fluid from the device when in the closed position. 6. The device of claim 1, wherein said leg members project downward from said bottom wall, said leg members raising the enclosure from a supporting surface for allowing the escape of washing fluid from said device through said at least one discharging hole; and wherein two of said leg members are placed on outer bottom corners of said housing and two of said leg members are placed on outer bottom corners of said door thereby providing stability when said door is in an open position. 7. The device of claim 1, wherein said carrying handle is pivotally attached on said top wall portion of said housing. 8. The device of claim 1, wherein said paint roller holder assembly comprises a paint roller holder bracket and a paint roller holder, said paint roller holder bracket is fixed to said bottom wall portion of said housing, said paint roller holder is removably inserted into said paint roller holder bracket such that said paint roller holder positioning can be adjusted. 9. The device of claim 1, wherein said paint brush cleaning surface is slightly bowl shaped and mounted to a bottom corner of said back wall. 10. The device of claim 1, wherein a positioning of said at least one discharging hole and said washing opening allow a sufficient water level in said housing for cleaning said paint brush by using said paint brush cleaning surface. 11. The device of claim 1, wherein the housing is dimensioned to enable cleaning of a paint roller with an attached 240 mm standard roller cover. 12. The device of claim 1, wherein said splash guard comprises a fold on the bottom for collecting splashed water and discharging it on ends of the splash guard away from a paint roller cover being cleaned.
