Uh oh!! Daddy is outside the tent looking out across the desert and he doesn't look happy! No camels to be seen though - they've probably already been sent off to bed! Stylized ripples and water flows frequently appear in my work. I don't know why this happens - they just keep showing up. The abstract palm trees are original designs. All parts of this unique lamp were handmade from steel. The steel has been powder coated with a blue-black finish. There are microscopic particles of violet embedded in the finish that flash if they catch the light just right. The lampshade's fabrics are batiks. Since there's only one lamp like this in the entire world and I don't intend to make another like it - it's a bargain!
