This stunning piece was a transformative journey from a simple white skull lamp into a vibrant and spooky work of art. Originally given to me by one of my mom's best friends, the skull had an outdated internal light and was completely rusted inside. I hollowed it out and replaced the light source with LED rainbow light strips, creating a mesmerizing glow. The exterior was spray painted with black Rust-Oleum twice before applying a purple-to-green color morphing spray paint, achieving a dynamic color transition from black-green to black-purple. The base, made from solid wood, was spray painted black and adorned with faux flowers and crystals for added flair. I bought a beautiful glass plate from The Eclectic Goods Market in Dunbar, West Virginia @eclecticgoodsmarket , to be the top, and to complete the look. Now, this revamped skull is the perfect addition to any spooky-themed end table. #ArtisticTransformation #SpookyDecor #SkullArt #LEDLighting #ColorMorphing #DIYProject #UpcycledArt #Rustoleum #CreativeLighting #EclecticGoods #ThriftedFinds #Handcrafted #WestVirginiaArt #HomeDecor #UniqueArt #SkullDesign #HalloweenDecor #art #artist #painted #upcycledfurniture #ArtisticExpression #SpookyVibes

I decided to do an experiment last year and left one of my art prints exposed to the elements to see how it would fade. It has officially been about a year. It has been exposed to the sun every single day and was not kept in a cool and dry place. It was framed. This print of my senior cat Millie, is made with pigment based inks. Pigment-based inks are more water resistant, and hold its color, quality and vibrancy better than die based counterparts. With proper aftercare the print can potentially last up to 100 years potentially more. #art #aftercare #wv #artist #appalachia #catlady
