I don’t have a lot to say about this one except that it’s a Polaroid 645 Instant Camera and I have an affection for vintage electronics and of course I like cameras. Almost 20 years ago I received a few vintage cameras, nothing too amazing, but they were old and somewhat interesting, and I ended up giving them to a friend who was way more into it than I was at the time… Every now and then I sort of wish I had kept some of them.
It’s weird to think back to all of the cameras I’ve owned or used over the years… personally and at various jobs. My daughter is a huge photography nut, and when she was in school she interviewed me about photography, and cameras, including all the old ones I used to own. It was fun and interesting and I may even still have a copy of her report somewhere. I should find it and post it!
In the meantime, enjoy this sketch of a Polaroid 645 Instant Camera. I plan to dig up other old electronic devices and do sketches of those as well. If you’ve got an idea or a favorite, let me know!
I still like doing these sketches! I do them with an Apple Pencil on an iPad using Procreate. If you ever want a framed print of any of my sketches get in touch with me and we’ll work something out… Also, check out the Illustration page to see them all!
