I am one of 14 artists painting an adirondack chair to be part of a fundraiser. This isn't just painiting a chair in a pretty color. It's a canvas for the artist to create a work of art. The chairs will be displayed in various downtown locations for the public to bid on. The coolest part of this is that a bunch of teen girls built the chairs under the direction of "Girls at Work", a NH non-profit dedicated to empowering girls through woodworking and carpentry. My daughter was one of those teens.I have in mind an owl and mountain/foresty scene. After my husband painted two coats of Kilz, I painted two coats of gesso. I'm now ready to begin the real painting....always an exciting yet frightening stage!
Stay tuned for an update at the end of the weekend!
