It is no secret why this easel is a best seller here at Jerry's Artarama; it is made with the highest quality and comes partially assembled! The Carolina easel by Creative Mark is sturdy and easy to adjust, allowing artists to work sitting or standing up. You can adjust this handcrafted, H-frame easel from its minimum height of 60" up to its maximum height of 102". Minimum of 5 feet, and the maximum easel height with the mast fully extended is 8.5 feet. Also, because of its oiled and seasoned wood construction, artists can anticipate this easel serving them for years. It also makes a great display easel! The Carolina easel has a firm quad base (22"x24") and can accommodate canvases up to 84" high! Due to its design, you can work comfortably sitting or standing. Includes a 22" utility shelf for keeping your most used supplies up front. Note that the twin rear stabilizer bars allow for back angle adjustment and the rubber canvas grips will hold stretched canvas or panels in place without marring. Twin rear stabilizers allow for a wide range of painting angles, which are essential to reducing glare on the painting surface and for comfortable painting too.
