A folding chair with crossed supports

Practice a folding chair with clear forms and selected overlaps. Place the simple leg pairs beneath the seat. Show the near and far overlaps clearly at their crossings. Join the backrest to the frame and add small shadows beneath the seat. Keep the broad planes open.

A way into the drawing

1. Set the seat and backrest

   Draw a broad seat plane and an upright backrest that share the same perspective.

2. Cross the supports

   Place the simple leg pairs beneath the seat. Show the near and far overlaps clearly at their crossings.

3. Connect the back supports

   Join the backrest to the frame and add small shadows beneath the seat. Keep the broad planes open.

A small thing to tryPlace the four feet on one implied ground plane before adding the leg-crossing accents.
