I own more than one artist easel but this one by Artful Kidd is my favorite:
The number one reason I like this one the most is because it is COPYABLE. Â Since it is only 10 prims copies of it can be left at more than one location on my island, making it easier to set up for machinima shots. Â The easel also comes with a light that can be turned off or left on. You will find it in Artful Kidd’s Marketplace store. Â This product link was active on the date I purchased it.
Here is the product review I left in the Marketplace:

Early this morning I went to re-rez a no-copy drafting table that I’d already purchased two times, Â only to find that once again that the table was missing from my inventory. Â I still had the builder’s link so I quickly bought another one. Â Before I had rezzed it, I decided to run a quick search for a copyable one in the Second Life Marketplace. Much to my surprise I found three that were. The one I settled on was made by Artful Kidd of Kiddz Creations. Â It cost me $350L but already I am convinced it was well worth the price. Here are the product specs:

This set includes a metal textured drafting table with an animated drawing board table top texture. While it’s cool to see the drawing board texture change as I draw,  the texture is not changeable to something I’ve drawn. Conversely, I paid $550L for my Gypsy Sketchbook by Gypsy Paz and get to use my own textures with it;  however, it is not copyable. I would have been happy to pay the $1000L for a similarly equipped, copyable drafting table.  Meanwhile, I can add a “video green” prim on top of my drafting table to use for machinima productions. That way I can add a video animation on the prim in post-production editing.
