It took me a while to realize that you did, in fact, paint the inside of the legs. The insides were bare for some time, it would appear, but I know better than to assume you left them that way. Did you also paint the underside of the seat?<BR/><BR/>SHAME, SHAME, SHAME on those people for getting rid of that masterpiece. That is something I would have treasured for the rest of my life and would have had a hard time putting into my will because I'd never be able to decide who should get it after me!<BR/><BR/>It's one thing to be able to consign an image to a canvas. There, you have the "luxury" of having a flat surface upon which to work. But, to work on something like this chair, to be able to look at it and SEE the image trapped inside it, is another magnitude of talent that I can barely fathom.<BR/><BR/>I'm in mourning for the loss of this work of art.<BR/><BR/>JonJon Westcothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15289839252112720400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888649478237507446.post-67745742497382012342009-03-22T20:27:00.000-04:002009-03-22T20:27:00.000-04:00I LOVE THAT SHREW LOOKING FAIRY! you should do som...I LOVE THAT SHREW LOOKING FAIRY! you should do something else with him. that is awesome. filled with win and yeah i think i would want to slap a parent for tossing that one. i mean that is filled with awesome<BR/><BR/>have you thought about doing this to small pieces of furniture. you know they would sell. or even wooden boxes like you can get at Micheals and such. little wooden tables. chests of drawersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888649478237507446.post-24004097619296135652009-03-20T01:10:00.000-04:002009-03-20T01:10:00.000-04:00How beautiful!
