I’ve actually went through a few chairs, problem in asking for a recommendation is everyone’s body is different (so their no right answer). But the chair I settled on was a simple wooden garden chair like….

So when things are hot, there’s ventilation at the back (although you tend to sit forwards while painting). Another (more radical)option might be a “kneeling chair”

These take a little bit of getting used to at the start, but you soon get used to them (and are supposed to keep you back in good shape), although from experience you need to have the desk a couple of inches higher than with a normal chair).
