Hi Mary,

For years I have searched for different canvases, at Wind River Arts you not only supply the top of the line canvases but a variety of priming. I enjoy the large mounted canvases as well because it keeps me from stretching so much, and I can spend more time at the easel. Thanks also for paying particular attention to archival needs in using the better adhesive.

 The easels and taborets are the best I have ever used. Thanks so much for your insistence on quality.

My best,

Dear Mary, 

It’s beautiful!  The taboret is not simply an artist’s tool.  It is also a solid, precision crafted piece of furniture and a piece of art in its own right.  I look forward to its many years of use by me and the younger artist who later inherits it.

I think the easel and taboret products are beautiful as well as functional. The canvas boards are lightweight and well made. AND the customer service is great!

The taboret is fantastic! In my struggle to try to keep supplies organized and to work in a more efficient manner, it has helped me keep everything I need for painting neat and within easy reach as I work.  The size of the palette eliminates the need to stop and clean up a new spot for mixing colors. Because it's on casters, I can easily move to another painting on another easel and work on several pieces at once. It's constructed like a piece of furniture and looks good, too - now my studio doesn't look like a junk yard with supplies falling out of old shelves and cabinets!

The panels are lightweight and consistently good quality. I never thought the surface that I painted on would make such a difference until I used the 359 linen panels - the paint flows more smoothly and doesn't just absorb into the canvas. I can put several into my pack and hike out to paint without adding a lot of extra weight

And about that customer service...

I always look forward to ordering supplies from Wind River Arts - it gives me a chance to chat with Mary and Chuck and deal with efficient, pleasant people!  The orders arrive quickly and questions or concerns are addressed right away.  Thanks for making a tedious and sometimes frustrating part of my job so much more enjoyable!

 Dear Mary,

The Easy-L was the difference! I appreciated your swift response in filling my order for the Versa easel on such short notice.

And considering the fact that I was not familiar with your product, I was quickly able to get used to the logical  (and smooth) functioning of its moving parts so I could use it in an invitational paint-out right away. The kind and quality of accessories that are available with the easel are also functional and well-made. I have had several easels, and the ease of operation of the Easy-L puts it well beyond the others for efficiency and durability. The Easy-L lives up to its name!
