  • In this video I show you how I made my portable sketch easel inspired by James Gurney.
    This is an easy how to video. I describe, step by step, how I made my easel and what materials I used.

    Thank you for sharing an easy, affordable DO IT YOURSELF plein aire work station for watercolor using a minimum of tools and supplies that most people have on hand and can readily find at any local hardware store.

    Just discovered your channel after watching a review of a carving knife on another channel.

    omg thank you for this video! I was making my own and had no idea what tool i needed to set in the t-nut so i just resorted to carving a little mote for the T part of the nut. Also drilling into the plastic hinge wasn't something i thought about to make the easel close shut lol i wish i had known that earlier before buying hinges that has the tension screws on the sides

    You did a great job and your video is very clear and easy to understand. I also made a James Gurney sketch easel. The only difference is I drilled a hole in my easel which is big enough for me to drop a silicone water cup into it. So that my water is recessed and I don’t have to work around a protruding water cup. So I just pop in my collapsable cup when I start painting. I also did not do a nice job drilling those holes for the magnets because I used quarter inch plywood which makes my pallet very very light. But not deep enough to embed the magnets. So I used little stick on magnets that I got from Home Depot. And they hold very well.

    Great video, I too want my own field easel and the prices out there are terrible for what is offered. YOU ARE correct it is a simple design. Anyone can make their own if the already have a tripod sitting around 😊
