Are you familiar with http://www.spoonflower.com ? If your computer graphics skills are as good as your painting skills you can design your own fabric for lampshades (or whatever). No minimum and prices start at about $20/yd. That could be expensive if you were making a California King bedspread, but not so bad for a lampshade. Sophista-Tiki has over 100 great Tiki designs there you could buy also. I suspect she paints some of her designs as watercolors then scans and manipulates them but I don't know that for sure. At any rate, it's a great resource for an artist.
