CARPINTERIA, Calif. - Holland Scott Gallery today announces the debut of
the Environmentally Responsible Green Energy Fine Art Lamps. These lamps combine
energy-efficiency technology with fine-art design. Elegant photographic floral
images and art-deco linoleum patterns from the 1930's are the result of energy
efficient LED (Light Emitting Diode) lamp technology and the Giclee (zhee-clay)
fine-art printmaking process.
Omnidirectional, these LED lamps provide the correct color temperature of daylight
for displaying naturally brilliant photographic colors. They also generate no
heat and are free from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays that may cause fading over
time. More importantly, LED lamps use 80 to 90 percent less energy than the
incandescent lamps they replace.
Inventor and artist, Candy Hawthorne, along with her husband and art dealer,
Scott, also a professional photographer and a true-digital art pioneer, are
the brains behind the first Green Energy Fine Art Lamps. They have been creating
art mediums with computers and technology since 1978.
Scott is a designer and creative evangelist; his contemporary photographic
works are represented in each lamp he designs.
"The natural photographic beauty is complemented with the soft LED lighting;
these new lamps look spectacular," Scott said. "The eco-friendliness
of the new lamps is also very exciting."
The new long lasting LED lighting is provided by LEDtronics, one of the leading
LED lighting design and manufacturing companies in the U.S.
