Description/Summary

Summary:

"Steampunk is a formal term that refers to a subgenre of speculative science fiction set in an anachronistic 19th century society. In other words, it is a fun, fantasy style that is full of lots of whimsy and interesting hand-craftiness in brass and wood. It is my main muse when I design and build"--Artist's statement from Vamp & Tramp website.
