Lyptus Lobo Easel

Switch between watercolor, oil, and pastel work on one sturdy easel

Horizontal for watercolor washes that need to stay flat, vertical for oils and acrylics, tilted forward so pastel dust falls away from your work surface rather than settling into it. The generous 21¾" × 28" base shelf supports substrates up to 44" tall while maintaining stability through position changes.

Adjustable height extends from 34" table position to 70" fully raised, accommodating both seated detail work and standing gestural painting. The 24" × 28" footprint stays compact enough for smaller studios while providing the mass needed to resist wobble during aggressive mark-making. Lyptus construction delivers the heft and rigidity of traditional hardwood with faster regrowth cycles and better sustainability metrics.

Assembly required, but the investment in setup time pays off in an easel that handles multiple media without forcing you to switch between dedicated supports. Artists working across watercolor, oil, acrylic, and pastel find this multi-position design eliminates the need for separate horizontal and vertical easels.
