Lost in the red thread?

"Lost in the red thread" is an intriguing work that invites viewers to invent their own narrative to the scene depicted. The work, which is a combination of photography and 3D rendering, depicts a woman and a child in a dilapidated environment. The child, dressed in a red dress and barefoot, sits on the asphalt, while the woman wears only a blue long mackintosh and stands looking into the distance. The characters' clothes seem to be from the 1950s. In the background, a red car can be seen with open doors and boot, and a dilapidated petrol pump. The sun has just set and a bright light shines on the woman, perhaps from an approaching car or truck. The whole creates an atmosphere of mystery and confusion. The work was inspired by the staged works of Dutch photographer Erwin Olaf, who is known for his intriguing images and the stories he evokes with them. This work, like the works "Weeping woman?" with work code 781541 and "What happened here?" with work code 782901, was inspired by photographer Erwin Olaf.

In the distant past I worked a lot with photoshop, so when I started using photoshop more often as a hobby it was only natural that I could add something to my photos.
Nowadays my work relies heavily on the use of image editing software to finish both my photographs and my digital drawings and paintings.
If I can't photograph or draw/paint my subject there is always the 3d modeling software which makes just about anything possible.
On my website ArjenRoos.nl you can find more information and a large number of works are highlighted.
