i dry therefore I am thinker style

I always thought that Rodin was inspired by Descartes,

the French philosopher famous for the quote ‘I think, therefore I am’. However, Google suggested I was wrong. Still, it’s undeniably a good plug for my latest ‘Art of Series’ work starring Rodin’s Thinker.

What’s your favourite piece of art or artist?

    I don’t know that I have a favorite piece of art, but I’ve always loved impressionist paintings. And modern art is always fun to look at, even if I never understand it.

      I love art from the 19th century onwards too. Unfortunately when I studies art at school we started with ancient Egypt and stopped at the Romantics (just when it started to get really interesting and full of colour and interpretation)

    I love so much different art. As a teenager I loved going to the National Gallery and looking at the early Australian landscapes. One of my favourites is Lost by Frederick McCubbin. I love the various ways newcomers to our land depicted our divine bush. Variously immensely hostile or stunningly beautiful.

      Yes Jen, our art gallery has a wonderful collection of work. I remember as a child being mesmerised by Lost and The Pioneer. I’m a bit of a Streeton fan too.
      PS. Glad to have you back 🙂
