SORDID TALE by Dale Crum: / As one traverses the sordid tales of the masters of the arts and the plight of the muse—-me thinks it near the impossible quest to unearth one of more grievous consequence than that of Aguste Rodin and Camille Claudel. The voracious master sculptor was 46 years old and the voluptuous, enamored muse was a meager 22. Her sienna chocolate eyes were utterly, obsessively charmed by his creative prowess--and his will to conquer both every subject and model alike. She was forthwith succumbing to his eye and hand—their scandalous affair left her young and precious body, tender heart, suffering soul, incomparable talent and brilliant mind absolutely incinerated. His all consuming passionate furnace so seared her young lover’s heart unto beguiling insanities. Bit by precious bit of her own creative genius was recklessly crushed by Rodin’s oppressive nature, as well as his foray of relentless affairs. / Following a vast span of 15 tumultuous years the totality of her annihilated fragile mind; supplanting all reason and logic—-culminating in barely animalistic spontaneous effect. Camille Claudel spent her last tortured 13 years without the wit to create a thing—-in the dank confines of a tormenting asylum. I created this 16×20 inch Acrylic Painting on Canvas in hopes to cause all to pause—-and to Think on this.
Taken on King Street, in Newtown, Sydney. / Scan from colour negative film.
I could not help but think of Simon And Garfunkel’s song when I created this.

Mixed media on canvas I actually received a prize for this painting, took a photograph of it and one day I got slightly bored and tried to make it better….and its never been the same since. There must be a lesson in there somewhere I guess…...but never-the-less…..I did get a prize and thats what its all about for me. I want to win a prize! I must write in my journal about that. .......why does Billy want a prize so badly!
Waterfalls in the River Etive; the flow was sufficiently fast and choppy that this blur occurred at only 1/8s exposure. Shen-Hao 5×4” camera, Ilford FP4+, Rodinal (APH09).

Also known as “Creation of Man,” this 7’ tall limestone Rodin figure at Allerton Park in Monticello, Illinois, was inspired by Dante’s inferno. Rodin originally conceived his Adam and Eve figures to flank “The Gates of Hell,” a huge bronze portal commissioned for The Museum of Decorative Arts, Paris. \\ TOP TEN FINISH IN THE MOOD & AMBIENCE GROUP’S HUMANESQUE STATUES CHALLENGE, 6/24/09.

London, England Feb 27/09 / Sculpture by Auguste Rodin outside England’s Parliament buildings. / (Big Ben is at the other end of the building.)
Sorry for the pun – I can hear Rodin spinning in his grave from here.
Named in honour of that feller depicted by Rodin, sitting there and wondering who the hell it was that stole his clothes. / A completely random creation. But, I like it.
a portret with a ode to rodin…le penseur,the thinker
When the college friends were reunited, they chose a cafe they had never been to before for brunch. There were many intriguing options on the menu and they thought the toughest choice of the day would be what to eat. That is, until they saw the bathroom. We don’t really know what Rodin’s Thinker was thinking about do we? We assume it is a weighty issue, but perhaps he was just trapped by meaningless choices in a bathroom.
