The Spelunkers
Here are a few detail shots of my latest commission, a wedding gift. I love that they're wearing their headlamps! I'm nearly done with the pure black background, made up solely of ampersands. I absolutely love how beat up the paper is--in the last snap you can see the molehill created between the various levels of pressure applied between opposing values.
Go Fund Me
Hi Everybody!
I recently acquired this stunning piece of Smith & Corona machinery. This beautiful baby is currently on a three-month vacation at Blue Moon Camera & Machine, being tinkered with by the experts, her platen getting a shave and massage (seriously--read this), and her function being totally restored. She's roughly 100 years old and with her 18" carriage, I'll be able to work larger on a single sheet of paper!
I am extremely fortunate to have many exciting opportunities before me, but I may not be able to make them happen if I cannot acquire the funds. If you are interested in supporting my artistic practice, please check out my Go Fund Me campaign. My aforementioned typewriter repair, cross-country travel to install my large-scale work, and framing costs make up the need for this fund.
If you are interested in donating, please view the gifts available to you below:
If you donate $30 or more, I will send you an 8x10" print of one of my smaller typewriter-drawn portraits of your choice!
If you donate $150 or more, I will create an original 8x10" typewriter-drawing for you!
If you donate $450 or more, I will create an original 16x20" typewriter-drawing for you!
If you donate $600 or more, I will create an original 22x30" typewriter drawing for you!]
Thank you so much for your consideration. Have an incredible day.
Best Wishes,
Rachel
