Umbrellas
When you are painting out in the sunshine, you need to shade your canvas and palette. Although no umbrellas stand up to high winds, I find the Windbrella is pretty good as it has vents to let lighter breezes through. If you get an umbrella with a long pole to stick in the ground, I recommend the Earthworm stand which comes with two spiral spikes for either sand or soil.
