Featured Art: TypoWriters

These graphic photos of manual typewriters are a throwback to a simpler time. Writers of all backgrounds can appreciate the sense of nostalgia these vintage machines inspire, and they remain enduring symbols of communication, letters, books, stories, commerce and life.

Louise Marler picked a few favorites off the shelves of her father's collection to reinvent. Purposefully pixelated and colorized with playful captions, they evolved from low-tech origins into dynamic contemporary art.

All images can be custom printed to your specified size. To get your own TypoWriter fine art print, please contact L. A. Marler.

L. A. Marler in Vision Magazine

In the latest issue of Vision Magazine, Louise Marler and her Oil is History photography take center stage in a renewed mission to green our planet.

In the article, Louise discusses her dedication to art and environmentalism:

Inspired by vintage Americana, I make contemporary statements of retro subject matters; I am fascinated by machinery as well as nature and I strive to create beauty from would-be mundane matter. I deliberately focus on the pure essentials of an image and I'm interested in the shadow, abstract composition, architectural geometry and organic beauty of landscapes. With an adventurous spirit, I explore different techniques and my favorite personal statement is, 'You never know, unless you try.'
