> Your inner artist is Keith Haring!  
> With your good-natured charm and fun-loving attitude, it’s no wonder you’re paired with the cartoony style of Keith Haring. Always up for a good time (or hosting one), you probably have a natural ability to talk to anyone, anytime, anywhere. People are naturally drawn to that charisma, and compared to others, you have it good when it comes to making good friends.

WOOO HOOO-- I love it.

So you might not have the gray beard and black-rimmed glasses, but chances are you share a few things with the master of photography – like your appreciation for honest living and the great outdoors. You don’t need the flash and panache of big-city living to get you going. (Though there’s a time and place for everything). But it wouldn’t surprise us if it’s the simple things in life that mean the most to you – like true friends, family, and the call of the wild. Like any true pioneer, you probably have your hands full with multiple projects at one time. And from the outside, it may look like you’re burning the candle at both ends. But those that really know you would say you’ve always got an eye on the big picture, and that nothing short of a mountain will stand in your way.

Anorher “Keith Haring” here. The “sense of humor” comments sound right, but not the part about people being drawn to my charisma. Well, except for one _very_ special woman who insists I am quite the charmer… 🆒

Vincent Van Gogh  
I have all my ears, I don’t have glaucoma, I’m neither bi-polar nor schizophrenic. I paint, but never portraits least of all of myself. I’m not lost in the world, but I’m still flattered 🙂  
I have talent, I have passion. But, not so much of either that the world caves in on me.

Your inner artist is Gustav Klimt!

I like his art, but it says I have self confidence and courage which is completely untrue.

Okay, so maybe you don’t dream about melted clocks, but you do share a hint of Dali’s passion for the surreal. Let’s face it – you’ve got a different way of looking at the world and that means that things aren’t always as they may seem… It’s not necessarily that you have a rich fantasy life – it’s just that you can appreciate different perspectives and points of view. I mean who are you to say something can’t exist? But even when you do come out of your dreamscapes, it’s clear, like Dali, your feet are planted on terra firma. And your unique combination of inspiration and creativity are sure to spell success.

Your inner artist is Norman Rockwell!  
Whether entertaining or visiting with friends and relatives, you and Normal Rockwell discovered that home is indeed where the heart is. You exude a cozy charm that others find endlessly comforting to be around. In fact, you may find that your friends and family members come to you first for advice or to talk simply because you seem so real. But don’t be fooled. We suspect that someone as grounded as yourself still holds nostalgia near and dear. And just like Rockwell, you have the power to leave a lasting impression on everyone you meet simply by being exactly who you are — no more, no less.  
Personally, I don’t like his work and I don’t think he was as tortured a soul as I consider myself. But… I am comfy to be around and real.

Another Keith Haring here. Looking at their other choices, it seems like the most appropriate.

:eek: **Norman Rockwell**? How could it be? :eek:

Well OK. His technical skills are supreme, and I do like the occesional piece like ‘The Runaway’, or ‘Saying Grace’ or even stuff like ‘Before The Shot’ 😛 , but there are no words to describe how I loathe the series of puppies and ballerinas and sporting boys and such. I figured myself as more of a Caravaggio type, but can’t argue with an internet quiz that seems able to correctly guess every aspect of my character - in reverse 😃 .

Another Keith Haring. The description is apt … I’ve never seen his work before. I like it. 🙂

Maybe all us Rockwells can host a ‘cozy and charming’ mini-dope for all the other poor tortured souls. 😛

Who’s Your Inner Artist?

Your inner artist is Salvador Dali!

I would have never picked him…I was hoping it’d be Georgia O’Keefe. (I like the American Southwest.)
