I dunno, if you're like me you're probably discontented with the state of lamp art nowadays. Too slick, too soulless, all that perspective and shading and whatnot. Am I right? So you'd probably like to see some poorly drawn lamps. Well...here. Part of Shoebox World; via Librarian Avengers. The web is a weird place.

Oh man, I've been working on some new lighting designs (no kidding, really) and have some really bad submissions to offer. Thanks rodii!

that was the ultimate rarity, a truly weird experience. I especially liked this.

Rumor has it that this one was a leftover from the cover art of Radiohead's latest album.

How enlightening.

... um, get it? EnLIGHTening?

Yeah, well, as advertised, the drawings are lousy too.

It's deep and thoughtful, conversation provoking posts like this that make me want to stay here...

Oh man, I remember this site! What a cool site. I actually sent in a lamp a few years ago, but it doesn't appear to be archived on the site. My lamp was surfing, for some reason, and a bully lamp was laughing at it.
