Leaf stencils connected with freehand painted vines dance across the front and back of this bright orange chair. Three green leaves on the seat back form a fleur-de-lis when connected with hand-painted detailing. Spray stenciled leaves on the dried top coat using a medium green paint. Hand detailing in other green tones and white gives the motifs dimension.
