My Chairs

I have Chinoiserie Chippendale faux bamboo chairs that I bought at my favorite junk shop - and although they were originally green I am considering either a hot orange-y red or a royal blue, or maybe a light pink shell. Opinions? I am hoping to use oil paint (I find the finish more even and durable)- Does anyone know where to get oil paint in great colors? I usually mix RustOleum paints to get my own colors, which has led to uneven results - does anyone have a better source?

Sorry about the long absence - late June and early July were busy for me :)
