Tile Chair

Well, the best laid plans and all that! I spent my Sunday fighting with my computer. I have a new phrase in my life "Your virtual memory is too low". This old girl is fighting it's age I guess. (The computer, not me...though...hmmm, maybe me too!) After a computer doctor worked on it she said it will take some time for my virtual memory to return...I don't really know what it is, but I know it wreaks havoc with an already ancient piece of equipment! So, sorry for the delay.

As I've been posting about lately I've been working on my eye candy...those wonderfully random pieces of art that clean the cobwebs out of my creative brain and sharpen my skills in other areas. "Tile Chair" is probably one of the most random items to have done. I love recycling art projects, and this is one for sure. I took an old chair and painted it a fun peacock blue and made some clay tiles, painted designs on them and attached them to the chair. I also made a cover for the wicker bottom out of canvas, painted it, and put knots all around the edge to bring a bit of the yellow color throughout the design. I think of these items as sculpture, though this one is usable as well. The seat is 25" from the floor. I hope I have inspired any of you to shake yourselves up a bit and PLAY!

I want to thank Sema, one of my newest followers for my kreative blogger award! I will be responding in kind now that I am back on line!

I am so happy we are so close to the goal of 35 followers...can't wait to give that little gift away to one of you...SO CLOSE! Happy painting to you all today!!
