Description
After Francis Montague Holl, Despair.
Joe Jarrah made me want to take an interest in English genre painting. I thus discovered the paintings of a painter named Francis Montague Holl. What struck me in this exacerbated sentimentality was often the absence of the loved one, whether sailor, soldier, or even in prison, which by contrast gave a strong presence to the female characters. For this mini series, I chose to transpose this social misery into another, more contemporary one, the one that binds us to our screens. My characters lack a part of themselves in the lack of relationship established by the interface of the screens.
Thank you for the view and your comments

Et oui, c'est difficile parfois de se servir d'un ordinateur arrivé à un certain âge et quand on manque de formation. Aider ses enfants ou petits-enfants, aller sur les sites gouvernementaux obligatoires pour ses impôts, une carte grise, etc. c'est souvent une vraie galère!

Eloquently done, and I had to crack a wry smile at the Renderosity site being on her screen!

People of a certain age are not immune to the fascination of screens. Outside of work and play, screens are addictive when they exacerbate the creation of images. Always more posts, always looking for more likes, sooner or later the desperate loneliness lurks when the lack of ideas arises and the lack of relationships other than those of Internet users. Renderosity is no exception to this kind of competition.

Pas toujours facile d'aider ses parents ou grand-parents a utiliser ordinateur, tablette ou smartphone. N'est pas formateur bureautique qui veut !

C'est juste. Merci de ton commentaire

Another striking picture! I like how the elderly woman is not taking much solace from the young woman who is evidently trying to be of help. How often we isolate ourselves from those who mean well? On another note, the elderly lady reminds me of myself... XD

Online relationships cannot really replace face-to-face relationships. Or rather, they make it possible to maintain the bond between people who appreciate each other and whom life has moved away, or even, it is first of all the emotional richness of our real life which can nourish that on social networks.
