Enameled Chair

114" x 11"  watercolor   $65.00  

I am nearly a century old.  Generals, and priests have sat here.  Grandmas, and grandpas, moms and dads, kids and babies have sat here to tie shoes, to eat meals, to read, to dream, to cry.  I am not ordinary.  Books and important papers have been stacked on my seat as well as dirty garden shears and pots.  My skin is thick with coats of enamel, but I have many memories.  Beside the linen and lace curtains in this warm colored peeling room I happily save a space for the unseen guest to rest.

That chair is quite inviting! Nice complimentary colors.
