Alla Prima Pochade Review (Vintage)
This was my very first professional easel. These are hand made in Montana and you can tell. It has endured many years of plein air painting and been hauled all over the place. Over time this easel has been modified and improved so please check out his other easels. You wont regret it!
I rate it 9.875

    Agree with your review. Superb build and design. I really like the convenience of having the panel holder built in too. I noticed there is an adapter for the side trays if you want to paint with the palette in a more vertical position - very adaptable, love it.

    Looks nice but I think the ugo one would be a lot more practical. Too many knobs and wing nuts etc to adjust, too many pieces that could get lost.

    I wish this had been available 10 years ago when I started Plein air. Might I suggest a category for which easels work best for which medium? I paint watercolor Plein air, so use blocks instead of panels and often much larger format. So certain easels or styles lend themselves better to that (Strada watercolor or Mark II, Plein Air Pro, CupEasel, etc.). Then again, big clamps make any pochade a watercolor easel. 😊 Thanks for all this research!

  • @cheryllapham6279
    @cheryllapham6279 Рік тому

    While I love Made in America, I would also consider handmade elsewhere. The most beautiful easel I own was handmade in Korea by CharlieUSK and I own several CupEasels hand manufactured in Canada. But my most used is the U.Go. But my quest continues - probably forever. Thanks for a great video!

  • @terrychancellor4593
    @terrychancellor4593 Рік тому

    Love this! By the way, your spreadsheet was SO helpful in helping me decide on an easel. Originally was going to go with Daytripper until I found out he's all into conspiracy theories (no thank you) and then decided EasyL but the one I wanted was on back order with no foreseeable date of return (oversees hardware was being held hostage in a shipping crate I'm sure). So I went with the Ugo. So far I really like it but will probably switch out the plastic palette for the glass as the plastic just isn't as smooth as I would like. Also considering possibly getting a wood palette cut for it. My dream easel, definitely the EdgePro but I need to up my game and selling before shelling out that much!! LOL!! Have you done a thorough study of tripods? That's my next purchase. I have a pretty sturdy one that I've had since the day of the big VHS video cameras and it works well but I'm sure there are better options for plein air painting...seems like too many options frankly, overwhelming!! Thanks for making these videos, I've referred my students and friends to them recently as they are not only informative but fun as well!!! Kudos for having the courage to wear a metallic jumpsuit! 😂😂😂

    • @KennethYarus
      @KennethYarus Рік тому

      Hey thanks so much for the comment and for sharing my videos. I'm so glad you found them helpful! Yeah- the daytripper is an excellent video but he certainly took a turn back in 2020. I'm glad you settled for the Ugo. It is an excellent easel. As far as tripods go- no I haven't had time to make a video about that. There are soooo many options. The same issue remains- lightweight comes with a stability cost. I have a Manfrotto tripod I use now. It's just aluminum but works well. The number one thing to look for is a clip on the bottom of the main shaft. It is necessary if you want to weigh your system down with your backpack. Otherwise I prefer the clip style legs over the new twist lock. My own preference really. Good luck and happy painting!

    • @Anonymoi
      @Anonymoi 7 місяців тому

      @@KennethYarus Hi, I just wanted to add, as you may already know, that a couple brands sell “stone bags” for weighing down your tripod. Soho, the brand at Jerry’s Artarama, has had one for awhile, and I see that Guerrilla Painter has one now too. They’re just triangular pieces of heavy-weight nylon with three straps to attach to each tripod leg, and you can put stones in them to provide some stability, and they also to some extent create an extra spot for setting items. I don’t know how the added stability compares to that created when you have weight pulling straight down from the center of the tripod, but they work pretty well. It’s just one more thing to bring with you (and you need something heavy to put in it) but it’s small and lightweight when packed.
