Artwork Description

The Nintendo Gameboy was one of the very first electronic games I came across...
Even though I never owned one myself, I would spend hours at my friend's place playing Super Mario and Kwirk, taking turns with her for each new level.
I am very grateful for the childhood I had and the healthy balance between electronics and outdoor activities.
This drawing "No Connection" is a tongue-in-cheek way to show that not everything needs to be linked to the internet and that you can still have fun with very basic games.
Anyone else missing their vintage consoles? :-)

Artist Bio

Hi,

Thank you for dropping by...
My name is Cecile Michel and I am a pencil artist living in Paynesville, Australia.
I draw with graphite pencils and charcoal on stretched canvas to create strong contrasts and subtle shadows.
I love using the black and white theme to reinforce a sense of fun memories (like black and white photographs) but occasionally will throw in a few limited pieces containing colour... Just to keep thinks surprising and unexpected.
When I drew my first “Nostalgia” piece, I couldn’t stop smiling as I remembered the endless hours spent playing games with my cousin in our little village in the East of France; I wanted to share this feeling with you and hopefully you will find that object which is part of YOUR happy memories.
