Robert Chestnut

Hello, I’m Robert Chestnut, I am a Prek -12 art teacher at Ocracoke school in North Carolina. I am an artist, Photographer and vintage toyota land cruiser enthusiast. I enjoy many tools of time. Some of which include my favorite cameras: my Leica m3, Nikon f2sb, and my Rolleiflex 3.5f. When I am not teaching students about Fine arts, I am out surfing, going on photoshoots around my hometown, or working on my vintage 1964 fj40 land cruiser. Lastly I love discussing tools of time and hearing different perspectives on them. I am excited to contribute to the tools of time Blog!
