George Harrison has come to visit Ringo Starr


Well, George decided to come and visit Ringo. lol I've been sick all weekend and when I did feel good enough I asked Bob to sand down the next chair and I started to basecoat it on Sunday. My flu turned into a cold and I was off from work and after a lot of sleeping and drinking orange juice started to feel better. By Tuesday night I decided to finish George up after watching the movie Hanncock with Bob (that's actually a good movie, I heard it sucked, but we were happy with it). :o)

As you can see, George isn't as fancy as Ringo with the colour choices, but I had decided to use the brown and green based on what George was wearing in the photo.

So now I have to get Bob to sand down the next two chairs so I can paint Paul and then John. I'm having a lot of fun painting these chairs!

NOTE: I decided to seal Ringo's chair with DecoArt extra thick sealer and I will never use that stuff again, basically it is REALLY thick to apply and it globbed a lot on the chair (sigh) I thought it was save time, but what a mess. I've decided I'll buy a different sealer and just take the time to apply 5-6 coats. :o)
