Build Your Own Easel! -- PLANS: materials list
Here's a materials list with everything you need to follow the plans. I'll explain in more detail later, but the easel I built will hold a 7' tall painting, has a 4' wide shelf and stands about 7 1/2' tall total. If you need ideas on where to get some of these items, or how to look for them, see my easel resources page. Looking for metric?
Today I’m going to take you through the process that I use to make my canvases. As I’ve mentioned in an earlier article on improving compositions , choosing the correct size and crop of your artwork is extremely important. If you’re a painter, the only way to really do that is to stretch your own canvas to the shape and size you want. I use materials and tools that anyone can find at their local hardware store, and often make large canvases for a tiny fraction of the price that it would cost me to buy them already made. The inner frame, or structure, of every canvas I create is made out of 1×2 wood, and quarter-round trim. Once I’ve decided on the size that I want my canvas to be, I cut four pieces of 1×2s (one for each side of the canvas), with a forty-five degree angle at each end.
