"Okay, in your studio or working space, what you're going to want to be doing your actual painting on is something that's going to look like this. A artist's desk or a painting desk, or an easel. Now for the painting desk, the good thing about it is, you have a slant and that's what you need when you're painting. It makes things a lot easier and it leaves less strain on yourself. Also try and like, move your postures, sit up straight, and you'll be saving your back in the long run, but, so you want to have a slanted surface and depending on the, how big your canvas is, you're going to want to turn it up, down, whatever it's going to be. And there's always usually screws on the table that's going to help you with that. Now the easel, if you have only a flat space that you're working on, a desk, then you can get an easel. Sit it on the, on the desk. And they're going to look like this, they come in all different shapes and sizes. Smaller ones can be nice because then you can bring them outside more easily and they have different things on the back. You can open it up. And you can put it the same, back and forward, depending on the size of your canvas."
