Soltek- the ultimate plein air easel?
Posted on June 05, 2008 in French easels
Like the French easel models and the bulkier pochade boxes, this easel has space underneath the plastic palette to store brushes and paint tubes, etc (but not the standard brush cleaner containers). It has a carrying strap attached to ... Terrytoons cartoon featuring French artist Gaston LeCrayon, another of the Gene Deitch created characters from the late 50s. Color, unfortunately, is on the reddish side in this print. Author: retrotvluver Keywords: Terrytoons cartoon GastonLeCrayon Gaston Added: October 7, 2007
