Artistic Endeavors

In today's blog prompt, Tink has really spoken to me, by picking my favorite subject - Art. In her post she asks her readers what is our favorite type of art and who is our favorite artist. If I were forced to pick one type of artistic expression it would be a huge struggle between photography and sculpture. In the mood that I'm in today I'd like to work at moulding some clay and in so doing be able to give my thoughts and feelings shape.

As for my favorite artist, I don't think there could be just one. I do love Rodin's work and that of Camille Claudel's. But I also love much of the biblically inspired sculpture of the 13th through 17th Century. They are my photographs into a past that has long been lost. Anyway, below are the results to the quiz I took. My answer was based on my feelings at the end of my day.

I love Monet, too! I like 10s, 20s, even 50s when I can get them. But why did you spell Monet with a "t" instead of a "y?"

I'd have to say my favorite piece(s) are Leon Frederic's The Four Seasons. I do love Monet, but I also love most of the classical artists. I could spend days in an art museum.

I took art appreciation in college... and could never make up my mind which style or artist I liked best. There are a few I really do not like, but most of them I enjoy. Whether sculpture, paintings, ... just about any medium.
