ABSTRACT:
An easel is pivotally attached to a palette about an axis by at least one hinge. According to a first embodiment an extensible member is detachably attached to the palette and includes a first retracted position and a second extended position wherein the extensible member substantially extends to the rear of the palette in the second position. A brace having a slot is detachably attached at one end thereof to an end of the extensible member disposed furthest to the rear of the palette and is detachably attached at a remaining end thereof to said easel. A pair of thumbscrews pass through the slot at opposite ends thereof and are used to tighten the brace to the extensible member and to the easel, thereby securing the easel in a desired position with respect to the palette. According to a second embodiment, a pivot member is pivotally attached to the palette and includes a first position wherein the pivot member is disposed under said palette and a second position wherein the pivot member substantially extends to the rear of the palette. A bracket having a U-shaped slot on one end thereof secures the pivot member in position in the second position and a modified brace is detachably attached to the pivot member and to the easel.
