Oil painting easels
I use the Hughes easel when I am working in the studio. Because it has cantilevered adjustable weights, it is very easy to move your canvas up and down. It can hold a large painting as well as several small ones.

The Mabef easels are also good for use in the studio. They are less expensive than the Hughes easel, but not as flexible.

If you have little room in your house for a large easel, you can purchase a French easel that will pack away in a smaller space.
