Opus Essential Revelstoke Studio Easel

Oil, acrylic and pouring all work on one easel. The Revelstoke locks at any angle from vertical to completely flat, so you can paint upright, then lay the canvas flat for a pour or to let wet work settle without drips. It's made of FSC-certified beech wood, and its tilt mechanism uses anti-rust brass made to withstand thousands of rotations. Silent locking casters let you roll it toward the window light and lock it in place.

Best for: mixed-media, fluid and acrylic pouring, and painters who switch techniques.
