This pochade painting box is perfect for setting up a workplace in the home or painting plein air. Its lid folds out to provide an easel with handy slots for storing two wet boards after working. This easel can be secured at your desired angle using the built-in screws and butterfly turnings.
The internal easel space has slots for compartment dividers that are 6mm in width. The internal space is 30.6cm in width and 27cm in height, with a depth of 4cm, enabling you to balance a small, shallow canvas within it.
It has an internal palette attached to the easel lid, both of which can be slid out, and using the thumbhole as a support, allows you to hold both the palette and the easel top while standing, alternatively, it can be placed on a surface or your lap.
This neat pochade box has a wood veneer and a leather look handle that makes it comfortable to hold as well as a detachable shoulder strap to give you options. The outside of the box measures 31.5cm x 28.3cm x 8.5cm and has Jackson’s logo heat-engraved onto it on the bottom right-hand corner of the front.
The inner inbuilt drawer and main body of the pochade box have inbuilt sections that can be removed to store your paints, brushes, mediums, and rags. The depth of the drawer is 3.6cm, and there are two sections measuring 16.5cm x 11cm, one measuring 6.9cm x 33.7cm, and two more measuring 8.8cm x 10.5cm and 8.8cm x 22.8cm.
Suitable for use with Jackson's Handmade Linen Boards, Cotton Art Panels, Ultralite Linen Boards, and others with a similar depth. Boards such as Belle Arti Gesso Panels are too thick and will not fit in the slots.
A favourite among the artists at Jackson’s, you can also push the easel section out, away from you, to gain more perspective on a piece and use the drawer, palette, and easel simultaneously with ease.
Please note, this painting box will hold panels up to 10 x 12 inches in size, with no minimum for the vertical dimension and a minimum of 12 inches for the horizontal.
