The lamp is a teal color, and splotchy like a rusted copper would look after lots of exposure to the outside.

I can't believe it's been over a year since I finished this commission 💙
I'm still super proud of this one as animals really aren't my strong suit and I used more traditional techniques when digitally painting this.
