Grab a Chair

A collection of small 7x5" chair studies, each painted alla prima in a single sitting. For years I’ve painted chairs as portraits: not of who sat in them, but of the chairs themselves, each with its own personality and story. Every painting is titled after the city where I found and photographed its chair. These little paintings are quick, intimate encounters, made to be lived with. Find the one that feels like someone you know, and grab a chair.
