My love affair with typewriters started in 2012. I walked into a secondhand shop and found a Turquoise Royal Quiet De Luxe. It was love at first sight. Although it was a fair price it was still out of my budget. For the next few years I would only dream of having one of my very own. In 2014 I finally purchased my first typewriter and in 2019 I finally added a Royal Turquoise Quiet De Luxe to my collection. I name each typewriter and have been known to post about them on social media. I am a visual artist and use typewritten words in some of my artworks.
