Abstract
Implementations of a reference image holder are provided. In some implementations, the reference image holder comprises a base, a pole, a first arm, and a second arm. In some implementations, the reference image holder may further comprise a light source. In some implementations, the reference image holder may further comprise one or more speakers. In some implementations, a method of using the reference image holder comprises positioning the reference image holder on a surface, such as a tabletop or floor, attaching a reference image to the reference image holder for a user, such as an artist, to use the reference image, and using the reference image to make a painting or other artwork while held by the reference image holder.
Claims20
A reference image holder apparatus, comprising:
- a base, a pole, a first arm, and a second arm, wherein:
- the base is configured such that the base supports the apparatus to stand on a surface when the base is positioned on the surface;
- the pole is elongated and attached to the base such that pole extends upward from the base, wherein the pole is configured to support the first arm;
- the first arm is elongated and attached to the pole such that first arm extends from the pole, wherein the first arm is configured to move in at least a first direction and an opposite, second direction;
- and
- the second arm is elongated and attached to the first arm such that second arm extends from the first arm, wherein the second arm comprises an attachment mechanism configured to attach a reference image to the second arm.
A reference image holder apparatus, comprising:
- a base, a pole, a first arm, a second arm, and a light source, wherein:
- the base is configured such that the base supports the apparatus to stand on a surface when the base is positioned on the surface;
- the base comprises a plurality of wheels configured such that the apparatus can be moved around on the surface on the wheels;
- the pole is elongated and attached to the base such that pole extends upward from the base, wherein the pole is configured to support the first arm;
- the first arm is elongated and attached to the pole such that first arm extends from the pole, wherein the first arm is configured to move in at least a first direction and an opposite, second direction;
- the second arm is elongated and attached to the first arm such that second arm extends from the first arm, wherein:
- the second arm comprises an attachment mechanism configured to attach a reference image to the second arm;
- the second arm is configured to move in at least a first direction and an opposite, second direction such that a reference image attached to the second arm by the attachment mechanism can be moved;
- and
- the second arm is configured to be adjustable such that the length of the second arm can be changed;
- and
- the light source is configured to illuminate a reference image and is attached to the first arm such that light source extends from the first arm and positions adjacent to the second arm such that the light source can illuminate a reference image attached to the second arm by the attachment mechanism.
