Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] probodie - and all surprised I am, because on the one hand I like the pic that she got much better, but on the other hand, the little description seems mostly fairly apt!

Your result for What Your Taste in Art Says About You Test...

Balanced, Secure, and Realistic.

4 Impressionist, -12 Islamic, -12 Ukiyo-e, -3 Cubist, 4 Abstract and -18 Renaissance!

Impressionism is a movement in French painting, sometimes called optical realism because of its almost scientific interest in the actual visual experience and effect of light and movement on appearance of objects. Impressionist paintings are balanced, use colored shadows, use pure color, broken brushstrokes, thick paint, and scenes from everyday life or nature.

People that like Impressionist paintings may not alway be what is deemed socially acceptable. They tend to move on their own path without always worrying that it may be offensive to others. They value friendships but because they also value honesty tend to have a few really good friends. They do not, however, like people that are rude and do not appreciate the ideas of others. They are secure enough in themselves that they can listen to the ideas of other people without it affecting their own final decisions. The world for them is not black and white but more in shades of grey and muted colors. They like things to be aestically pleasing, not stark and sharp. There are many ways to view things, and the impresssionist personality views the world from many different aspects. They enjoy life and try to keep a realistic viewpoint of things, but are not very open to new experiences. If they are content in their live they will be more than likely pleased to keep things just the way they are.

Although... I hope I'm a bit socially acceptable, and actually I do really like new experiences and changing worlds!

And here's [livejournal.com profile] probodie's pic - I'm nicking everything from her this arvo - just because it's so pretty...

I got the Japanese one, like [livejournal.com profile] phantomas and I was quite surprised, because I like [livejournal.com profile] probodie's picture better, too. But like you, I was surprised at how accurate the 'personality' bit was - much better than the birthday month one!!

Ah, but do you like the Japanese one more than, say, the impressionist one? Is the test even close?! The write-ups are pretty good though, aren't they! *g*

I don't like that particular Japanese one much - or that Impressionist one, come to that. If I had to choose between styles to hang on my wall it would be difficult. I love those as well as abstract. But the write-ups are amazing!

They are rather good, aren't they! Memes are just fun... *g*
