A NEW CHAIR SILHOUETTE COLLAGE

The latest in my ongoing series of handcut chair silhouette collages, this piece features an inticately delicate Chinoiserie style chair on a geranium pink background (so intricate that I had a serious case of scissor cramp upon completion!) Measures 12 x 16 inches on board with protective coating. Ready to frame or perfect as is! Limited edition. Available now on my Etsy site.

    Love to do scissor cut out, but yes the hands take a beating. The color of the background is perfect.

    so pretty! i love your chairs. i wonder, could you design/draw/paint/sketch a ghost chair? or would that be hard to do b/c of it's ghostiness? not for me mind you, i ain't got no damn money (buying a house will suck you dry) but i am SURE that your loyals and faithfuls would be quite pleased at the prospect of owning a ghost chair..even a picture of one. just sayin'

    Wow...so pretty! I recently got two chairs from the Salvation army I can't wait to re-finish. They look very much like this one without arms.

    Love your attention to detail!!!
