My new Sorg Super 8 Easel arrived today! http://www.studioeasel.com/ I live tweeted this momentous occasion via Twitter: @artistclancy – to sum up: it was difficult to be patient and wait for the truck, the truck finally came, discovered that the box was crushed and punctured – some fear and trepidation as to what would be found inside the box (Would ‘my precious’ be damaged?) but it turned out all was well!! There was a quick cold-pizza break for lunch while I watched the easel assembly video instructions. Then I was all wrenches, hammer and ratchet set – and with valuable assistance from Judy – the easel was assembled! Here are the as-promised-on-Twitter photos:
A big box came! My new easel!
Oh no! The box is crushed and punctured in places! Will the easel inside be okay?
Whew! Everything looks okay! And all the easel parts seem to be here!

I’m thinking the Sorg easel is going to work out just fine – it does allow me to move my artwork up and down much more easily – which was what I’d hoped for in this post here https://sueclancy.com/2016/04/27/easy-easel-eagerness/
That is a very impressive easel! I can see why you were excitedly awaiting its arrival. I hope you find it a pleasure to work with.
So far so good! Last night before bed I sneaked back into the studio to “pet” the easel and say good night! Lol! This morning it has been a pleasure to play with! I think this easel and I will be a good partnership! 😉
Mazal tov!
Thank you for celebrating with me!!
