Art Historic

Classical: If you were an Olympian god, what would you be known for?

Laughter in the face of Tragedy.

Byzantine: Do you prefer gold or silver accessories?

Silver.

Medieval: Are you religious?

Yes, as a matter of fact.

Gothic: What is your favourite historic building?

I absolutely adore Durham Cathedral. It's just ... comforting? Calming? Homey? It's also, somewhat unintentionally ironically, very Gothic in a particularly medieval way.

Renaissance: Have you ever had a time in your life when you felt enlightened or changed?

The day after Sparky was born, I remember the clear thought that "life will never be the same."

Baroque: Do you enjoy the finer things in life?

Some of them. I like food. I'm not so much about other so-called "fine things."

Rococo: Is your bedroom full of trinkets and pictures? If so, which pictures adorn your walls?

It's definitely not FULL of them! I have the print we got from my parents for a wedding present (in the frame Dad made), a painting by Beast's grandma, a photo of Copenhagen that my brother-in-law took, and some other odds and ends. Not a lot of decor, just dust and things that don't have 'real homes.'

Neoclassicism: If something came back into fashion, what do you hope it would be?

I would like to see more round-toed dressy shoes. I hate pointy toes on shoes.

Romanticism: Do you often see things in a positive light?

I try very hard to do that so I don't spiral into catatonia.

Pre-Raphaelite: Which book would you like to see turned into a film?

I'd prefer if movies would find their own writers for awhile, ones that don't need super-heroes or war.

Impressionism: Do you look for details or take everything in at once?

I think I'm more of a Big Picture person right now.

Art Nouveau: When were you last at the theatre?

Live theatre has been a very long time. Movie theater...coupla months.

Surrealism: Why does the porcupine think it's a duck?

Because it's delusional.

Pop Art: Do you enjoy pop culture?

I do, to a point. I find people endlessly interesting and weird.

Contemporary: What did you do today?

Got up (trust me, it was not easy today), got dressed, went to see Beast, came home, cried, ate lunch, took a nap, avoided thinking about the 7 million things I need to do, this, read out of a couple of books....
