More Chair Drawings


Finally downloaded a few more chairs for the blog.  I did find about 6 more pictures of chairs in the House Beautiful magazines from the library share bins.  This one had patterns all over the surface but...well, I didn't want to make that many circles.  Enough to get the idea.  I found it strange that the builder of this chair used two different shapes of leg.

I just now looked at one of my chairs to see if all four legs were the same.  Yes.  And now I am thinking about drawing that chair.  A "life model".   That chair also has an ottoman.  I could draw that as well.  It's a very cloudy day.  No sun so the house is dark without turning on lights.  Which I haven't done as yet.  But I just did.  Lights on at 10:31 am.  So, no drawing of life models today.

Riley and I went out for the paper (just to end of driveway) this morning and then opened the garage and pulled the vegetable plant wagon outside.  The Tomato Seedlings seem to be growing overnight.  I often wait way too long to use the plants and flowers in the wagon.  The wagon is just such a wonder-filled thing right now.  Packed as it is with fresh new things and blossoms.  I really must get to the garden and rake up the leaves.  Too many and none composted over the Winter (which is odd).  Garden beds are a total mess. AND I over-wintered some perennials in the beds.  I need to dig them out and situate them where they belong.  Usually the garden is super clean and tidy and I can just start planting.

We haven't had ice cream in about a week.

Today is Goodwill Dollar Sunday.  I don't know what color tag will be a dollar.  Last week it was blue.

Nice chair, if I were buying a chair I would like one like that with just the few circles, and not an allover design, which would be too much. I want to see your life drawn chair!
Cold out there today, I'm staying in and working a jigsaw puzzle and listening to jazz radio.

I need to take a picture of my chair. Different style legs in back than in front.

We sit in two old comfy chairs...one of them French...at the old dining table we bought from the same person, a seller of vintage furnishings. It's the best table arrangement we've ever had. Sometimes we're here for several hours, eating, talking and playing cards. Lovely drawing.
