This is perfect if you are looking for an easel to paint on or if you are looking for something to display with. I personally use it to display my photo album with. It is one of my most treasured possessions. I loved using this so much, but when my boyfriend's father took up painting I thought he would get more use out of it then I would. He so is! He uses it almost every day. These are available on Amazon . I received this product at a discounted rate in exchange for a honest review.
