Ever since he can remember, painting has been his favorite form of expression.  After a visit to the Hawaiian Islands in 2001, Tim was so inspired and he decided to move to the island of Oahu.  Art took a back seat as Tim’s first job in Hawaii was a taxi driver.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut, Tim remained committed to his art.  He received encouragement showing his work at the Honolulu Zoo Fence on a Sunday afternoons.  After early success, Tim parked his taxi for good and began painting full time. Tim paints with his power of emotion. This energy is apparent in his work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTim’s passion for painting has lead him to many places around the world, including trips back to his roots in Vietnam where he created and currently manages a lacquer painting factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTim uses an ancient Vietnamese lacquer technique derived from the clear sap of six species of trees. Tim applies natural vegetable dyes to create vivid colors in the clear lacquer sap. Then, Tim coats an artboard with 10 layers of different lacquer colors. He rubs and polishes the surface to get to the color he wants to show. Tim’s most popular items are hand-painted wood lamps made by protégés in his art studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTim has selected his favorite paintings and applied each onto an acrylic lamp base. Each image wraps around the square lamp base. Comes with a square white shade as shown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"accordionProduct\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"panelProduct\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamp: 5.5\" L x 5.5\" W x 15.5\" H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase: 7\" L x 7\" W x .75\" H\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShade: 17.5\" L x 17.5\" W x 8.5\" H\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal height: 26\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"accordionProduct\"\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"panelProduct\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eAll shipments may take a\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMINIMUM OF FIVE BUSINESS DAYS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eto be received as we are shipping from Hawaii.
