Yummy Mud Puddle Shoe Lamp wp2565 SOLD

More than an assemblage artist, John Richards of Yummy Mud Puddle fame is also a maker of lights. Whimsical lights that light up the night with humor. John was born in 1936 (gosh he looks good for an old man) in Fond Du Lac Wisconsin (where the @%#* is that?). His mother was an artist & his father a writer. Due to circumstances beyond his control, he moved to Chicago IL, Glens Falls NY, Pelham Manor NY & Saint Just Puerto Rico by the time he was ten.

He received a BA in English from Union College in Schenectady NY & taught English, Spanish & Art for four long years. In 1963 he quit his job, moved to NYC, took various courses at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and began his freelance Art career. He has been creatively unemployed ever since. Currently, his imagination runs wild in Burnsville, NC.

Sometimes a room needs a little light, and lots of personality. John's lamps will force a smile out of you 'cause they are just so darn much fun. Presented for your amusement, a shoe lamp. Created with vinyl-ized (is that really a word?) paper over a wire frame. Really a sculpture that happens to light up. UL approved lighting fixture. Cord off and on switch. Every sculpture is handmade & therefore unique. Measures 33" tall and about 13" wide and 6.5" deep.

Local pick up. Given the size of the piece and the way it would have to be packaged to survive - shipping will be costly. So inquire if you need shipping. Don't add it to your cart inless you plan on picking it up.
