Abstract :
Painting Easely is an easel that has the ability to move up and down, tilt back and forth, and adjust to the size of the canvas with a remote control that is easily operated by an artist with physical disabilities. With this system, the artist is able to move the canvas to a desired location so that he can reach certain areas that he would not normally be able to cover with his brush
