Lamp Design Artist Statement

During product design I have been working on a lamp that is like no other. This lamp has large majestic leafs that give any room a better design. But before building this lamp I had to do some research. For my research I had  to pin 30 pictures of lamps on Pinterest. After evaluating  30 lamps I noticed that most lamps didn't look like trees. I decided to design a lamp  to look like a tree.The Tree Lamp has three leafs on top. The rest of the leafs are tied by a thin string. The objective of this outstanding lamp is to light up a dark room. The Tree Lamp is intended for children ages 3-14. This lamp  was created with paper mâché  and  and painted with acrylic paint. This lamp was destined to be in a comer of a room. If I ever did the same project again I would add more detail to make it look more realistic. One negative thing about building this specific lamp is the ballons were of poor quality and I had to keep restarting my leafs  because of this my leafs aren't smooth as they should have been. This project  has taken me one month to accomplish.  Although I am very proud I feel like I could have done a better job making the leafs a lot smoother.
