Natura Morta by Alexa Meade
You wouldn’t believe your eyes. Would you? If I only showed you the first two photos, like me, you would think “Chair Painting”. The third photo proves us wrong:
Alexa Meade is a US based artist who paints her models strikingly real for her installations and then makes photos of them…

Chair Paintings by Ami Armagost
Time to pay attention to a loyal FaceBook follower of us, Ami Armagost.
Ami Armagost:
Born in America and raised in Japan, my cross-cultural upbringing has had a significant impact on my life and on the content of my painting.
…
I am fascinated with the process in which materialistic objects of the house become a sentimental, personal, and essential element of the home. Having no sentimental attachment to domestic furnishings, my curiosity of this matter drives me to explore the affection and attachment that people develop for these items.My recent work focuses on chairs and our intimate relationships with these functional and ornamental sculptures – chairs can fulfill our emotional and psychological needs.
…
My works are portrait like, letting the chairs sit in for a human and taking on a figurative nature.
…
The chairs are inscriptions of owners from past and present. My body of work provides a sense of loss as well as the experience of discovering collected memories. I believe my viewers can feel a familiarity in all my works and interpret each piece through their own experience.
I wonder like a dog and its boss tend to seem alike after a certain period of time, would a chair and its owner have similarities in character or physionomics??
1001 chair sketches by Michael Dharmawan
In 2009 Diane Carnevale has published 365 chairs on her Chair du Jour. I’m proud we have inspired her for some of her paintings.
Now I noticed there is a blog called 1001 chair sketches out there. Michael Dharmawan anticipates to punblish 1001 chair sketches during 3 years… I pinched his Pebble Chair and his Pebble Sofa sketches for this post.
Both have earned a place in our (Currently 70) Top Inspiring Chair Design Blogs and Sites
