What a cool looking camera. Painting it was a bit daunting. I started with the background and sketched in the camera. Then it sat for quite a while. It looked so complex, I was reluctant to dive in and finish painting it. Finally I just started chipping away and it came together. I tried to keep it on the loose side, so if the mechanics aren't absolutely accurate, it wouldn't matter. Besides, who the heck owns a Foldex and is going to question my rendering?
My love of the arts began early on in life and was greatly influenced by an inspiring photography teacher in high school. I began teaching myself to paint in 2019 and have had my work exhibited in numerous shows around the country. One of the joys of being an artist is looking at the world in totally different ways and discovering a painting or photograph in a million unexpected places. For inquiries: dominmark@yahoo.com
