Painting Chair Parts

I just finished brushing on the 2nd coat for some 60 or so "Weekender" chair parts. Painting is one of those relaxing jobs where the mind is allowed to wander with minimal potential for drastic consequences. Have I painted my hand more than once? Sure. Spilled a whole quart of expensive paint? You bet. Tracked said expensive paint into the house? Absolutely. Still there's something so sweetly rewarding about being surrounded by a bundle of freshly painted chair parts. I know I am getting near the end of another craftsman's journey. I am close to completing another set of Weekender chairs. Soon somebody is going to have some of my Fresh Art on their lawn or patio. It doesn't get much better than this, does it?
