Book pages, acrylic, ink, embroidery floss, thread, and charcoal Diptych of Two - 24" x 24" each painting on cradled birch panel (24" x 48" if hung as a single artwork)
My parents' generation used slide rulers to perform complex calculations. Calculators became available when I entered college, and everyone used a Hewitt Packard 12C. (Does anyone else remember using reverse Polish notation?) My kids grew up with Texas Instrument calculators. So when I came across an old TI 57 calculator instruction booklet, I used its pages to create an homage to the calculator in two abstract paintings.
