Artist's Comments
1993. Life was good. I had time on my hands so I bought some sycamore locally and made this chair. After I built and carved it I scorched it with a blowlamp, rubbed it down, stained it, sealed it with shellac and gave it seven or eight coats of wax.
I love old furniture, really old furniture. The basic design is loosely based on English oak chairs from around 1600 although the girl's face and kingfishers went a bit art nouveau-ish. It's very heavy and very comfortable and looks totally out of place in the small, modern house we rent these days.  Please respect my copyright, thanks. Daily DeviationGiven 2008-07-24Mye Goode Olde Woode Chaire by *boblea. The suggester was full of praise for this one and said, "It is a chair made, no crafted, from sycamore and is one of the most beautiful pieces of woodwork that I have seen in a very long time. The proportion is good and the workmanship, finishing, and carving are excellent." (Suggested by *ClickclickDame and Featured by `Kitten-of-Woe) |

 reports, 1d 13h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Capitalism and religion kill the animals, individuals and society. They can kill you in a variety of ways, slow or quick. There can be no happiness or peace on this planet, no prosperity for the masses, as long as this slavery continues.
