Oil Painting Supplies | Easels

I had the frech easel when I was a teen. I only ever used it to paint the artwork for my final grades. I went away and came back looking for it some years later but termites got to it (stored it in a bad place) 😩 It was a pretty great piece of equipment. I cant afford anything like it right now, so I'm just getting the aluminum one.
I'm gonna put it in my amazon cart so I remember it

My french easel broke in time

Would be ok Lyra style easel?

Does the studio easel hold panel canvases?

Where do people put their palette, on a desk to the side?

😅😃ihavaneasel

What people need to keep in mind is that H type easel is for tall ceilings. Mine is not able to extend all the way up so I have to either cut the top or put extra support on the shelf to raise it to the level of my eyes. I don't understan why it is designed for lowering it to the ground but not lifting it where you need it.

Awesome, thanks! Love that T-Pain painting btw 🔥

Don't know why but I like to paint with the canvas flat on the desk. I seem to have better control of the brush.

Hey if you reply please help me I want to become a painter and I need tips I need a easle that's vertical so how to make one and also what do you prefer painting humans or nature I just like to paint nature so I'm guessing I should stick to my inspiration(nature)and is it good or bad that I need to be looking at the thing that I'm painting

Nice Bro

Thank you!

we have the exact same easels spooky!

I am purchasing a gift for my daughter. Should I spring for the Mabef portable easel? Or a Jullian? Is is worth the extra money? Or just a waste. I want her to feel special but don't like to waste money. She is not a professional artist but is resurrecting her life long interest in painting as a more serious adult hobby. She is talented and has had art lessons all of her life but not attended "art school". I have a Mabef studio easel but would I buy it again? Probably not. Not worth the extra money. What are your thoughts? I think I just answered my own question. Lol. Thank you.

Lol, in the market for a new easel. You’ve come a long way matey! 👍

I had a version of your H-Frame easel but as the apartment got cramped for space I switched to a French easel. I absolutely love it and I had a friend who is into woodworking put together some dividers for the drawer. I can keep clean brushes on one side and dirty brushes on another. I keep mine in a corner which doesn’t take up much space. I also pull the drawer out and set my glass palette on it when I am painting.

Ok, so the common complaint on the French Easel that you've recommended is that the wood is relatively cheep and the screws strip easily/don't tighten easily. You don't find this at all? Thanks for your honest video and break-down examples of the french easel also.

I see a portrait of juju smith-schuster. Are you a steelers fan? lol. (Coming from a Ravens fan oddly enough xD)

Excellent tutorial again, great help
