I really like how this painting turned out. Zach said it was like he was "on a roller coaster" ....I don't know why that is, but his responses are getting more creative :)

Oil on canvas, sides painted, 12x24 inches
I'm also trying to decide on kind of a large purchase. The time has come, I need an easel that can travel with me. I keep going back and forth between the two below. They're similar in price....and they each have pros and cons.

Versa easel
Pros: I already have a tripod (saved expense)
smaller and more lighweight
will carry small panels, and multiple wet panels
Cons: need to attach a tripod
less storage space?

Julian French Easel
Pros: don't have to attach a tripod
has a drawer!
might be better at holding larger canvases
Cons: much heavier
some say it's hard to set up
Does anyone happen to own one of these? Opinions are welcome! I can't decide!
