"Hello, Goodbye"

"Hello, Goodbye" by Alice McMahon White

"Hello, Goodbye"

Pastel on paper from “The White Album” series, inspired by the Beatles tune of the same name. The series is also inspired by the hallmarks of adolescence, such as chatting with friends. The advent of cell phones hasn’t changed the way teens communicate all that much.

"Hello, Goodbye" belongs to the following groups:

1 on 1: The Fine Art of Portraiture, BubbleMania, In the Moment, Inspired Art and Realist Traditional Art

    Delightful painting! I hope you have also entered this into the “in the Moment’ competition as this is so about teenagers and captures that common moment that teenagers are often seen doing.

    not only he chats with his friends, it looks like he’s rejecting some adult word over there (because the way he puts his hand)

    Yes Eduardo, this is my son saying hello to his caller, and goodbye to Mom. Conversation ended. ;) Glad you picked up on it, and thanks for your comment. ~ Alice

    Hello, I just popped by to say that this is brilliant and really sums up teenage communication.

    “Mom, can’t you see I am busy?”

    Brilliant, but I’ve got other things to do so goodbye for now and I WILL pop back to check out the rest of your stuff.
