Description
The Office Chair: Most of us use what is commonly known as an "office chair". You are probably sitting on one right now at your computer screen. Their greatest benefit seems to be that they roll around from computer screen to printer to filing cabinet, or, as in my case, from drafting board to desk. They swivel, roll, rock, and dance around the room, a real work-horse.
But have you ever thought of the office chair as an Art Object? Take a look! It is actually quite a sculptural invention. With rollers, arms and projections, it twists and turns and tilts. By employing the use of Negative Space (the space around an object), I created a series of Oil Pastel Paintings in recognition of this often overlooked invention of modern times.
If your living room sofa is a neutral shade of grey, white or beige, or even black, a couple of canvas prints of these semi-abstract chairs would offer a splash of color on your walls.
The Fine Art America watermark will not be visible on any purchased products.
