feliciakw: (Halloween)
Read this line in a fic recently:

You weren't supposed to watch your family dance with death over and over. (From "Not This Way," by K. Hanna Korossy)

And suddenly, I flashed on a picture in my head of Dean and Tessa dancing.

Perhaps it's the season (Halloween, yay!) or perhaps I've looked at too much Edward Gorey and Charles Addams artwork recently.

But there ya go.

Any of you artistic types wanna have at?

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

Simple, Progressive, and Sensual


Ukiyo-e (浮世絵, Ukiyo-e), "pictures of the floating world", is a genre of Japaneseand paintings produced between the 17th and the 20th centuries. it mostly featured landscapes, historic tales, theatre, and pleasure. Ukiyo is a rather impetuous urban culture that has bloomed in popularity. Although the Japanese were more strict and had many prohibitions it did not affect the rising merchant class and therefore became a floating art form that did not bind itself to the normal ideals of society.


People that chose Ukiyo-e art tend to be more simplistic yet elegant. They don't care much about new style but are comfortable in creating their own. They like the idea of living for the moment and enjoy giving and receiving pleasure. They may be more agreeable than other people and do not like to argue. They do not mind following traditions but are not afraid to move forward to experience other ideas in life. They tend to enjoy nature and the outdoors. They do not mind being more adventurous in their sexual experiences. They enjoy being popular and like being noticed. They have their own unique style of dress and of presenting themselves. They may also tend to be more business oriented or at the very least interested in money making adventures. They might make good entrepreneurs. They are progressive and adaptable.

My thoughts on the results )

I went to my first art auction this weekend. My boss took me to an exhibit and auction (and "lottery") for the local arts foundation. It was really nice, and I came home with a very beautiful watercolor landscape. I got that in the "lottery." Everyone who bought a certain level of ticket got their name put in a drawing. And as your name was drawn, you got to choose which piece of art you wanted. I got my first choice. There was also a beautiful stained glass mirror that I had my eye on, but someone else got that.

Anyway, this morning, my boss and I were on the front page of the local paper. It's kind of a meh piccie of me. I don't often take good candid pics.

I suppose I need to get used to being in a small town and being part of a very high profile project in said small town. Meh.
