In a sense, many of my drawings are also portraits of chairs. In the “portrait” series, which now totals fifty, the key is the choice to depict only the upper half of the chair—the backrest. This is, of course, analogous to a portrait photograph or painting, where only the upper body or head is depicted. For those familiar with the chair depicted, it’s still instantly recognizable, but it also offers a new perspective on the chair. Numbers 46, 47, and 48 are horizontal and slightly different in size, and more spacious because they consist of two layers.
