Take a Word - Numbers

This week's theme at Take a Word is Numbers.  My distinguished gentleman "number cruncher" is from a painting by Hubert von Herkomer.  The numbers are from Maya's Steampunk at Scrapbook Graphics.  Thanks for stopping by to have a look!

    ( What's the meaning of "257"?)

  11. Bev, first let me compliment you on a super example for numbers. I am stupid in the "who is this artist" field and am unfamiliar with von Herkomer's works. Your colors are awesome. Second, I want to thank you for making your link obvious. Sometimes on challenges it is so difficult to find how to get to the host artist's blog.
