Lamp Light Drawings

Recently I was Invited to work on a project for a hanging lamp. The Gallery wanted figure drawings to match the glass swirls within a lamp. The lamp, approx 30" across and about 36" in length, is an Italian design and never gets hot. The drawings are pen and ink, drawn in a loose swirly style to match the swirly glass. I've never done anything like this before and I really didn't know what to expect but I think it turned out way cool! The drawings almost radiate. I'd buy the light myself, because its so totally cool, but it wouldn't match the westerny decor of my home.

The light is on display at Gallery 218.

Mother nature does not always give us good compositions. Infinite beauty yes, but not great compositions.
