My Watercolor Easel Kit

Over the winter I have been planning to adapt a James Gurney type light diffuser as an umbrella replacement.  It seemed like it would make a nice windproof/resistant rig.  After many set backs, I've finally come up with a working prototype of a wind resistant easel.  Saturday's forecast calls for wind so I'll make a real world test then.  In the mean time, here are a few pictures.
