LANDSCAPE OIL PAINTING TOOLS VIDEO 1

A full guided tour of the French Box Easel particularly aimed at the En Plein Air landscape oil painter but useful for any artist who wants to know more about the French Box for use with any medium, in the studio, as a table top easel or as an outdoors portable easel. I show you all the features, how to set one up and how I have customised mine which is not a wooden easel, but is instead made of bamboo.
