LederEasel Testimonials
Read what these incredible artists have to say about their experience with the LederEasel!
“I’m a big fan of the LederEasel and EaselCaddy, especially when I’m working on larger paintings and have limited space in my backpack. One of the best features of the LederEasel is its ability to hold large and also deeper cradled painting surfaces and place them at eye level with the subject. This really helps me with value and color sight matching plus it keeps my neck and spine in a healthy neutral posture. Its lightweight and compact breakdown design enables me to hike deeper into trails to find those magical locations to capture in paint.” |
"Over my lifetime I've bought dozens of easels searching for the perfect setup. Finally, the LederEasel fits my needs for traveling, in home use and in the studio. Now, when leading a workshop in Greece or Italy, I use one carry-on bag for all of my art gear and clothes. The sturdy and well made LederEasel takes apart easily making it very compact. Everyone I have recommended it to loves it!”. |
“Finally, I’ve found the perfect Plein air kit. The LederEasel fits onto a tripod, is totally adjustable for a multitude of situations, and comes complete with a padded carrying case. Painting on location just got better, best setup ever!

"The LederEasel is easy to assemble, and comes with clear instructions. The design is lightweight and minimalist, and it feels solid and sturdy to paint on. At only about 3.5 lbs, the whole thing fits in a bag that isn’t much larger than my tripod case. My students know I’m all about the intersection of quality and affordability when it comes to art materials - use the best that you can afford! You need to add your own palette and tripod to the kit, but at $159, this easel more than meets my standards for a high quality product at an entry-level price. For those looking to begin taking their art-making outside of the studio, I definitely suggest the LederEasel. I’m going to put it in my suitcase when I fly to my next workshop!” |

“Most panel holders are unwieldy when it comes to travel due to their size. The LederEasel panel holder's unique collapsible format solves this. It easily fits into my backpack for painting plein air, and even fits into standard luggage for air travel. When assembled, it is just as sturdy as any one piece design.

"After 40 years of outdoor painting, the LederEasel is just what I've been waiting for! It's lightweight, sturdy, and has a classy look! The LederEasel is versatile, making it perfect for artists of multiple mediums, and it packs easily to go from studio to Plein air painting. I finally have the perfect easel to recommend to all my artist friends and students!” |
