Easels for tabletop, outdoor and studio use

Easels for every workspace

An easel holds your painting at eye level and at a comfortable angle. You work more upright, see the subject without distortion and can step back now and then to check the effect. Which easel suits you depends on where you paint and how big your paintings are.

How to find the right easel

A tabletop easel is compact and suits small formats on a desk or kitchen table. A field easel folds up so you can take it with you when you paint outdoors or in different places. A studio easel stands firmly and holds large canvases in the studio. Wood looks classic and stands steady, while aluminum is light and easy to carry.

Check the product description for the maximum canvas height and whether height and tilt can be adjusted. Acrylic and oil painting is usually done upright or at a slight tilt. For watercolor you need a model that can be set flat or only slightly angled, because otherwise the wet paint runs down.

Tip: If you paint in a small apartment, check how compactly the easel folds and how much floor space it needs when set up.
