Flabob Airport
A painting I created during our plein air paintout in the Inland Empire, 2010.... Then just last week there was an article in our local paper about the sculptor who created Pegasus for the airport!

My Review of Guerrilla Painter Umbrellas

Deluxe Soft-Clamp Vented Silver Umbrella Kit - The mounting bracket becomes part of your Guerrilla Painter Box! The umbrella is held on by a patented, soft rubber clamp that really works. Can be adjusted in any direction. Chrome plated steel with rip-stop nylon canopy. Nylon cover sleeve...

Pros: Highly Adjustable, Easy To Transport, Durable Construction
Cons: Bag Provided
Best Uses: Outdoor Painting
Describe Yourself: Value Oriented
Primary use: Personal
I plein air paint. This umbrella is EASY to use and STABLE. Though under certain conditions the umbrella may require adjusting,aggressive windy conditions and/or soggy soil, for the most part, it is easy to adjust and remains as placed. To adjust for moving light (sun's changing path) or because of wind gusts this has been much easier to adjust when needed than other umbrellas I have owned. It is free standing which gives much more range of use than those that attach to the easel as well as more safety for your easel. (No fear of it tipping the works to the ground). Love my Shadebuddy!
