i'm pretty happy with "July". She's very simple. i can't believe how i get so excited about a piece that i forget to take the BEFORE shot! sireana and i found July at a backwoods (no joke) garage sale in michigan. my intention was for it to be Azria's chair. but then once i got this idea for the auction... well, lets just say Kita better make this up to azzy!!
i painted her with "old barn red"... added alittle dark wax... and then a final clear waxing for protection and durability.
then there's "Betty red White & blue"... i know this sounds harsh, but MAN, AM I SICK OF THAT CHAIR!!! it's very frustrating when you're working on a piece and it's just... NOT WORKING! i think once i line all three chairs up together, Betty will make more sense... but for right now, i'm just thrilled to get her OUT OF OUR HOUSE! i do plan on bidding on her at the auction... watch... i'll end up with her again!
"old barn red", "napoleonic blue" and "old white"
dark waxed
i do want to thank everyone who offered their candid opinion on this chair when i asked for it on Facebook. i appreciate the constructive criticism and tried to implement some of the suggestions.
ALL THREE CHAIRS WILL BE IN THE SILENT AUCTION ON SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9TH AT FAITH COMMUNITY CHURCH IN ELKHART!!!! if you need more information, please comment below!!!
