As with most of my ideas/projects there is rarely an enforced timeline for completion. I started this painting project in December 2011.
I finished the majority of the painting this week.
We use a large section from a fallen oak tree to cut the main body of the chair.
The chair topper adds neat detail.
Now for some random fun paint shots. 
The most difficult part of this painting was keeping my hands clean as to not paint my camera during the two days of painting. I used all old paints that would have ended up in the landfill to brighten up our backyard!
Enjoy your day!

Wow. not jyour average chair anymore.
Thank you! Happy that you like my painting fun! My poor camera had to be detailed after two days of this kind of photo fun! Take care, Anna
This is really cool! And looks like it was a lot of fun to do. I love seeing the progression!!
Thank you! You are right. It was a great paint/photo project that needed to be finished before it became compost. My next post will be photos of the art aftermath…such as paint splattered leaves and acorn and lots of other neat pics. Thanks again for the visit! Take care, Anna
How cool is that! Now for a picture of someone on it to get an idea of the scale.
Thank you! A week may need to pass before the paint is totally dry, but I will get a picture for perspective. Take care, Anna
Love this idea, may steal it this summer!
Thanks! You will have fun! Take care, Anna
Very funky!
I like the colour and texture!
Turned out great!
What can I say…from the mind of a child from the 80′s. Thank you! Take care, Anna
Wonderful, just wonderful !
This post (almost) inspires me to go take my old (probably dried up by now) paints out of the garage and create .
Thank you very much! The paints I used were between 5 and 7 years old…a good stir with a bit of water if your paint is water based and the paint will be happy again! Go out and paint it up! Take care, Anna
Beautiful paint job. Love your chair.
Thank you! I love to throw paint around. I hope the paint will help the chair last longer. Take care, Anna
