I often love excess in other artist’s work, just not my own. Although, I’m going to try a few ‘steampunky’ things. Or, maybe, ‘steampunk lite’. Check my next Making It lamp.
I was just checking out the guys in the background of the middle photo in the bottom row (well, OK, I was checking her out, and noticed the guys in the background!). Anyway, maybe I should get one of those leather corsets. I haven’t been to any parties lately where I’ve noticed that attire though.

I'm a self-taught artist who prefers to use found objects in ways that were never intended. I'm not interested in making 10 or 100 of the same object.
