Meet Keira Rathbone, an artist who is most famously known for
her amazing typewriter art. The creative London artist makes detailed
drawings on a typewriter she bought from a Poole charity shop. Typing
out hundreds of letters, numbers and symbols in place of brush strokes
and pixels results in beautiful enigmatic images. On average, she spends
90 hours on each typewriter-produced drawing.
However, it doesn’t mean she can’t draw with a regular pencil – vintage
typewriter is just one of Keira’s mediums to create her art.
Typerwriter artist Keira now has an arsenal of 30 typewriters and already
made ASCII portraits of Kate Moss, Marylin Monroe, Barrack Obama, Tom
Hanks and others you are about to see.
