I seem to have a bit of a passion for old Cameras. I bought this 1957 Mk IV Ihagee Exa on eBay intending to resell it on another antiques and collectables site. But I just fell in love with it and couldn't bring myself to part with it. So I thought it would do a painting of it instead :) I can sort of imagine the artist Edward Hopper having a camera like this so I kind of painted it a Hopper like style imagining it sitting on a hotel table. The painting is 4ins x 6ins and is painted oil on board.

I really like this--the colors are beautiful. And I can see why you couldn't part with the camera, it's so picturesque. Beautiful.
