In the last couple of decades, computers have almost completely and everywhere replaced the previous main attribute of the office - the typewriter. But, nevertheless, there are people who are in no hurry to part with these outdated devices. One of them is 27-year-old British artist Keira Rathbone. She uses a typewriter … to paint pictures.
Who would have thought that with the help of a typewriter, which far from all printed signs can reproduce, you can draw full-fledged large pictures. How big are they? The size of an A4 sheet, with which a typewriter was created to work.
It is in this unusual way - with the help of an old typewriter - that the artist Kira Rathbon creates her drawings. Moreover, she can paint both landscapes and panoramas and even portraits.
In our gallery you can see various versions of the paintings drawn by Kira Rathbon on her typewriter. These are images of an old church in one of the English cities, and portraits of world famous people (George W. Bush and Barack Obama) and even a self-portrait.
