I have no doubt that you are a genius; master painter, engineer, incomparable teacher, adept in sales and marketing, and with all that humble and ethical. You live in one of my favorite states and my favorite city in that state. I am 82 and wishing that I was young enough to travel there and take a class with you... and that I had found a source as good when I was teaching myself to paint at 41.

There are a few comments here that devalue your achievement of building this easel, but do they not see that functionality can be beautiful as well as useful? And that comfort and ease of use can enhance the function that it was made for? The methodical thought that went into the creation that displays and stabilizes every possible type of painting support AND provides for every possible painting position is amazing. I'm in love with it, and would buy it in a heartbeat at what I consider a reasonable price if I had a studio that would accommodate it. My paintings that sold in New Mexico years ago were done on a sheet covered bed in a tiny bedroom, sitting in a kitchen chair. I sold over fifty paintings through local art shows and commissions. I couldn't have imagined such beauty, comfort and ease at my fingertips.

I absolutely love mine and I’ve owned at least a dozen other easels. The way it holds the canvas so solid is truly remarkable. The range of motion on the vertical axis is all I need. I often remove my art in progress while it is drying just to appreciate the easel itself in the studio. I won’t need another easel ever. Thanks

I would love to have one of these! I use a magnet board for small panels. I embedded strong magnets in a board, then I tape a piece of metal to the back of panel. That way I can paint even the edges of a panel.

Hey Mark, I live in Australia so the postage for that size/weight article is way too much, but could you consider a kit of just the hardware that you can't get from a hardware store and plans for the wooden parts that can be made by the owner themselves. There are a lot of people who love, respect you GREATLY and follow you for years, but don't live in the USA or within a viable freight cost range, but would still be able to support you to some extent if they were given the option.

You mentioned the option of providing casters, but I do not see it being available on the website. Also, the retaining clips used to hold panels covers a lot of the painting surface. Is there a way to adjust those so they are more out of the way? I inquired about these things with a contact message on the website a while back but never received a response.
