More sketches with a similar feel. Chairs with a heart and I rather like the chair with the door. I like the juxtapose between the painted and the simple unpainted door and frames.
I don't know why but those two paintings immediately made me think of a song by Don McLean called "Empty Chairs". I specially like the first one with the two very strong opposite colours; Red/ green.

Oh yes. I can see these illustrating a decorating magazine article. Please keep going with these.
