This is the only chair I cut out which is in perspective (well sort of). As soon as I cut it I decided not to do any more at an angle; unlike my first drawing of the chairs where I drew them at all sorts of angles, all the plywood chairs have been drawn and cut face on. Like the stitched chairs. But now I have come back to it and finished it I really like it. I like the way it comes and goes, flipping between perspectives. Whether or not I use it in the final exhibition I am still not sure, it does not really fit, I could place it away from the main group, like a full stop.

I loved your return to a lurcher! rather like grabbing someones hand just for reassurance but understandably so. Now this 3D chair also has something special about it, a certain presence. Whether or not it fits with your work for your final show is for you to decide but if not save it for a future retrospective.
