Chair, Children's

Doll Rocker with butterflies in Princess colors

September 28, 2013 Sue Banks Leave a comment

This little doll rocker is only 19 inches tall and 9 inches across the back. I painted it in what I think of as princess colors; bright pinks, purples and blues with gold highlights. The seat and the seat back are painted with pretty, stylized butterflies and gold scrolls that match the little cushion which I made from my inspiration quilt fabric. The cushion can be tied on the seat or up against the spindles if desired. See how cute the chair looks with a little handmade doll seated on it? You can get a sense of the size of the rocker in the photo which shows it up against an easy chair.

It is for sale @ $60 which includes shipping and handling. If you are interested in possibly purchasing of this piece or you want to know more about this piece Send me an email or leave a comment.

Chair, Children's, Commisioned Work

Light house children’s chair

This little child’s chair is painted as if it were a mural. The chair belonged to the client who gave me free reign to do whatever I wanted and this was the result. The beach scene wraps around all surfaces of the chair. The light house is a famous one, I am sure you recognize it. The model for the hyper-realistic copper sand pail was a miniature pail that I stuck into rice to capture the look I wanted. The seagulls were taken from photos a friend took at the beach. The sand castle which I painted on one of the sides was a particularly difficult challenge.

This little vintage table and chairs were painted in bright colors with a realist painting of one of the famous locomotives that met at the ‘golden spike’ when the Transcontinental Railroad was completed.
