She is thinking, where did I put my clothes. I do hope there's no camera around here. All these clothes and nothing to wear. I could buy clothes in a charity shop. I hope the sculptor isn't getting ideas. What with mosquitos and cancer causing sun rays I ought to put on some clothes. I should have brought a swimsuit and swimming cap.
Palm Desert is a city in Riverside County, California, United States, in the Coachella Valley, approximately 14 miles (23 km) east of Palm Springs,
You can buy the artist's works, preferably if you are acting on behalf of a museum or other institution with funding. I saw prices from about 8,500 US dollars. Apart from art galleries, who buys sculptures? City centres, town halls, railway stations, city squares, parks, investors, movie stars, singers, footballers, hotels, shopping malls, airports.
My immediate thought was, just like Rodin's The Thinker. Yes, this artiste, Felipe (British equivalent name Philip), was apprenticed to another artist who was influenced by Rodin. Felipe specialises in sculptures of the female form.
You have probably seen Rodin's the thinker. If you think back.
Rodin's thinker is in the USA (Columbia Univ, New York), France (Rodin museum), and Singapore.
