Larger than life lavender Delphiniums grace the backrest of this vintage chair. The flowers are hand painted in acrylic paint in a hyper-realistic style with a touch of \u00a0 soft focus.\u00a0 I really like the effect and I hope you do too.\u00a0\u00a0 The chair itself is done in soothing blues, purples and greens.\u00a0 The darkest color is very deep purple.\u00a0 On the back side I painted a Silver Studded Blue butterfly. \u00a0 I also hand caned the seat.\u00a0 It turns out this sturdy chair might be pretty old as I found that the caning holes were clearly hand drilled. They were irregular in size, placement, and spacing, making this quite a challenge for a first time caner! I have included an image of the rescue chair as it first came to me! Look what a little paint and love did to it!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If you are interested in possibly purchasing something similar to this piece please Send me an email<\/a> or leave a comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Delphiniums painted on the back rest of a vintage newly caned chair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":354,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[13,14,43,42,130,12,133,45,44],"class_list":["post-353","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chair","tag-blue","tag-butterfly","tag-cane","tag-delphinium","tag-favorites","tag-flowers","tag-headerscreen","tag-hyper-realism","tag-vintage"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Delphinium-chair-06.jpg?fit=640%2C480&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p3UDxD-5H","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/353","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=353"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/353\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4072,"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/353\/revisions\/4072"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/354"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=353"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=353"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paintedfurniturebysue.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
