Venice Heavy Duty H-Frame Tabletop Easel vs US Art Supply E-381 H-Frame Easel
The Venice is a compact tabletop easel for small to medium canvases up to 23 inches, and it folds flat for storage or transport. The Extra Large is a floor easel on locking casters that holds canvases up to 83 inches and adjusts past vertical for pastel and portrait work. Both use hand-sanded aged German beechwood with an oil finish, and owners of both praise the sturdiness and the angle range. Buy the Venice if you work small and sit at a table; buy the Extra Large if you stand and paint big.
- Choose the Venice if you paint or display small to medium pieces at a desk or table and need an easel that folds flat and travels.
- Choose the Extra Large if you stand to paint, work on canvases taller than 23 inches, or want wheels and a supply tray in the studio.
