This was the second chair I created for the Boys and Girls Club Chair Affair auction, in Rochester, MN. I was in a frivolous mood, and wanted something that was just pretty. I began with one of the ugliest wooden chairs I have seen, and adorned it with sheer, iridescent fabrics, silk roses, ribbons and trims, all in shades of scarlet. The sheer fabric reveals glimpses of the body underneath. The back is equally ornate. To my delight, it was won by Ercia Watson, my beloved “pseudo-daughter.”
