These original paintings were done on 4×8 foot canvases, and used as upholstery on restored antique furniture frames. Each painting is original and no two pieces of furniture are the same. Concept by DeWayne Lumpkin. Paintings done by CMagellen, both of Southern Oregon. This furniture series was first exhibited in July 2010 in Redondo Beach, CA.
Backdrop for chair is a 8×12 foot, 6-panel painting, also by Magellen.
Susan Delia sent us this image of a beaded QR code created by her niece. She told us “My niece, Shelby Shirey, is an art student at College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan USA. Her grandfather, David Shirey, was a Cloud Appreciation Society member and really enjoyed it and shared his joy of this society with his granddaughter, Shelby Shirey. Shelby has created, through some app, a QR code to take you to the society. She then laid it out on graph paper and beaded, over the course of 70 hours, this QR code. She has posted this on Instagram stories and displayed it in the CCS student art exhibit. We saw many people scanning the QR code and commenting on how wonderful it was and how fun it was there is a Cloud Appreciation Society”.
