Book, Camera, Dresser

Original oil painted on deep profile wrapped canvas. Wood frame handcrafted by the artist using reclaimed oak slats used in local wine making.

This original oil painting transports you to a 1960s teen girl’s room during a carefree summer. Featuring a vintage Kodak Instamatic Hawkeye camera with a fresh flash cube, resting atop the classic Barbie’s Hawaiian Holiday novel, this illustration captures the essence of leisure time — reading the latest Barbie adventure and snapping photos on long summer days. This contemporary realistic still life painting is perfect for fans of vintage Barbie collectibles, retro photography, and mid-century Americana. I hope this piece not only offers a charming glimpse into 1960s youth and summertime fun, but also brings a sense of nostalgia and joy for vintage camera collectors and Barbie enthusiasts alike.

When there are more than one item in my still life paintings, I will often chose them by ensuring that the first letter of each is consecutive in the alphabet. For this painting, Book, Camera, Dresser the consecutive letters are B, C and D.
