Earlier in the winter I painted a variety of wooden chairs, one with an upholstered seat. They were all pretty much vintage, and the upholstered one, clearly an antique, probably late 19thC or early 20th C. Actually this carved , below, one looks pretty old: maybe Art&Crafts, or "Bungalow" style, from the 20s or 30s. Chairs are very fiddly; the rungs and spokes can drive you mad . They require a lot of patience and detailed observation. These two are matching (well, sort of!) swivel chairs. Bar stool height. It was a lot of fun painting them, and they are beginning to find happy homes! I have some pictures of the upholstry up next.

About This S Chair is an early design by Tom Vaughan and is one of his first explorations into flow and movement. In this case, movement of the paintbrush. The chair’s form arises directly from the flowing curves of a hand-painted letter ‘S’, transforming the two-dimensional lines of calligraphy into a functional three-dimensional form. These early influences remain strong throughout all his work and are a noticeable signature. The beautifully hand carved chair reflects the highly skilled craftsmanship of Vaughan’s studio, where, through constant innovation, he and his team produce complex works in wood, metals and plastics. Such pieces highlight his interest in converging traditional craft techniques with contemporary design and manufacturing processes. The flowing form and smooth materials of this particular piece particularly demonstrates the inspiration taken from Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore. Influenced by such artists, Vaughan stresses the tactile quality of each piece, and considers his work as functional sculpture.

In an installation titled Tails from 2006, Tatiana Blass (previously), presented several wooden chairs and other sculptural objects that seem to melt into the ground. The works merge with the floor through additions of specifically cut lacquered wood or fiber glass, solid forms that give the illusion of both brightly colored and woodgrain patterned liquid.
