Just clamp it on and the high power, 18-watt daylight tube issues an even light distribution with minimal heat and no glare, while the wiry, flexible arm allows you to move and direct the light source in a variety of positions and angles. It also comes with a separate clamp to attach this lamp to any table up to 2-1/8" thick. Includes one tube light that uses 80% less electricity than a normal household bulb and lasts up to 10 times longer. Assembly required.


UMBRELLAS & OUTDOOR PROTECTION

Jullian Easel Umbrella

Jullian Easel Umbrella

This handy umbrella clamps quickly onto your easel, table, or chair and positions easily via a flexible plastic gooseneck. The 51" diameter shade is made of translucent white nylon. It provides relief from the sun without affecting the colors on your palette.


Plein Air Collapsible Umbrella

Plein Air Collapsible Umbrella

This handy collapsible umbrella was designed and manufactured by a plein air painter who has firsthand knowledge of what the painter in the field really needs. Measuring a mere 12" (30 cm) when collapsed, and weighing less than 1 lb (0.5 kg), this is a light, portable painting companion that can be easily stored or carried wherever you need it. When fully open and extended, the Plein Air Painters' Umbrella measures a full 34" (86 cm) in height with a 42" (107 cm) canopy that provides ample shade for your easel, canvas, and you. The underside of the umbrella is black in order to reduce glare on palette and canvas. The silver outer side reflects heat and ultraviolet rays, and the wind venting feature allows you to use the umbrella in a slight wind or breeze. A C-clamp , gooseneck, and instructions are included.

ATTACHMENTS & SUPPORTS

Shelfhelp

Shelfhelp

With Shelfhelp lightweight aluminum shelves, you can expand the working area of virtually any French box easel. Each shelf is made to attach to most common-sized easels and up to two shelves will fit handily inside most French easels. Shelfhelp is great if you’ve ever wished for more workspace on your easel or found yourself stuffing art materials in your pockets. Outdoor artists have long complained of "nowhere to put things down!" when working outside the home or studio. The Shelfhelp shelf attaches easily and has a slotted edge that conveniently holds up to 10 brushes and comes with a plastic brush holder and two adjustable elastic straps to hold the brush holder and other tools. There’s even a hook for a plastic trash bag. It weighs only 16 oz and comes in right or left hand models. Use both for triple the work space. Equally handy whether you paint with oils, watercolor or other media — outdoors or in your studio. In the words of the inventor, long-time sculptor (and now painter) George Henson, "Help yourself to a Shelfhelp."
