Adding Machine is a self-portrait. Our assignment in a Still Life Painting class was to paint an object that represented ourselves. I came to class with nothing, not because I slacked off, (sometimes I was) but because I struggled to find anything. I asked my Professor if I could leave class to stop at a local Goodwill to see if they had anything. She wasn't amused. When I made it to the hard goods the adding machine was looking right at me. Price tag, $1.00. Numbers are always on my mind.
