When it comes to painting surfaces, stretched canvas is often the first method that comes to mind. But traditionally, all the Old Masters painted on wood panels. In fact, before the 16th century, panel painting was the standard. Most medieval and early Renaissance artworks (including many by Raphael and Leonardo) were done on carefully primed wooden boards. Artists would coat the wood with layers of gesso to get a smooth surface for fine detail.

What’s the best type of easel for you? If you mostly paint small to medium sizes and like to sit, a table easel or light tripod might be perfect. If you create big canvases or crave stability, a solid studio easel is worth it. And if you love painting outdoors, consider a portable field easel. The right easel is like a good friend – it should support you and stay out of your way so you can focus on making art!
