So think\, less is more.\n\nI use a back pack on wheels. Best place to look is online. Look for something sturdy and strong and roomy e nough for pastel box and added supplies In the past\, I also used a plas tic rolling cart (that folds up) from Office Depot\, which also works wel l and is inexpensive.\n\n \;\n\n Pastel box:\n\nI use a Heilman Paste l Box. It’s an investment\, but well worth it if you plan to continue w ith pastels.\n\nHeilman also has accessories which are great for plein air . An easel attachment that attaches right into the pastel box. Other pas tel boxes: Edgmon Pastel box.\n\nhttps://www.edgmonart.com/pastel-boxes-fo r-studio-and-field/\n\nDakota has a pastel box as well:\n\nhttps://www.dak otapastels.com/pages/boxesstorage.\n\nAspx\n\n \;\n\nYou can use anyth ing\, really. A plastic container or a cigar box. Pastels need to be brok en and sorted into colors and values. This makes it easier to find just t he color and value needed\, quickly.\n\n \;\n\n Easel:\n\nThere are s everal easels to choose from. Having a tripod with attachment along with your Heilman box\, works well. French easels (half or full) works great. Be careful it might get to heavy but it has a drawer\, perfect for holdin g your pastel box.\n\nSoltek easels is fantastic\, but expensive.  The ha rd part is that an inexpensive easel does not have a way to hold your pas tel box. And that’s very important! However\, you can also carry a smal l inexpensive folding table in your rolling cart.\n\nI found the pochade wooden boxes very heavy\, so I don’t recommend them.\n\n \;\n\n[env ira-gallery id="39590"]\nGot a question about this class?  Write to the i nstructor:\n[contact-form][contact-field label="Name" type="name" require d="true" /][contact-field label="Email" type="email" required="true" /][co ntact-field label="Website" type="url" /][contact-field label="Message" ty pe="textarea" /][/contact-form] CATEGORIES:Painting LOCATION:Cumming Arts Center\, 111 Pilgrim Mill Rd\, Cumming\, GA 30040\, C umming\, GA\, 30041\, United States GEO:34.210207;-84.132135 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=111 Pilgrim Mill Rd\, Cummi ng\, GA 30040\, Cumming\, GA\, 30041\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X- TITLE=Cumming Arts Center:geo:34.210207,-84.132135 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
