Sunday

As I write it is 62F and drizzly here by the New Jersey sea coast. Typical late autumn weather where temperatures rise and fall until winter when they find their niche and become more steady.
I am participating in Sunday Stealing today. How about you?

From Art Historic

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

I would be the chief god and rule over the other gods making sure they did what was right. I would be bored doing only one thing all the time as the gods seemed to do.

Byzantine: Do you prefer gold or silver accessories?

I like both.

Medieval: Are you religious?

Yes, I am very religious.

Gothic: What is your favourite historic building?

I am rather fond of the Post Office in Newark, NJ, which is quite lovely.

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

Baroque: Do you enjoy the finer things in life?

Yes, I do and feel that it enriches life for people. It challenges us to achieve and rise up.

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

I have two Japanese prints on my walls by each side of the bed. I have a jewelry organizer I made as well. I hang necklaces in it.

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

I like the fashions of the late 1920's through the 1930's with the draping effect of dresses.

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

Yes, I do, especially people.

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

I assume the question is asking about Pre-Raphaelite authors and Victorian novels.

Most of the best, Like Dickens, Brontes, Oscar Wilde, etc have already been made into movies.

Maybe Villette by Charlotte  Bronte.

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

I look at it all as one unit as that is how the artist intended you to see it. It tells a story. After that I will notice details because I learn from them for my own art.
Art Nouveau: When were you last at the theatre?

It's been a while since I have been to a play on Broadway.  Off Broadway I saw a revival of The Fantastics but even that was a bit ago. I just don't get there much and it's very expensive.But I have seen a few plays on Broadway from My Fair Lady , Phantom of the Opera and Wicked. Wicked being the last play I saw.

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

It doesn't. That is your own weirdness showing through. Animals are always who they are. Only people identify as something else lately. ;)

Pop Art: Do you enjoy pop culture?

Depends. Over all, no. I do like the era of the 1950's with the diner look especially.I would enjoy having a 1950's kitchen.. cabinets, sink , Formica top table and chairs. 

I would have red accents and chairs and a black and white floor.

Contemporary: What did you do today?

Spent time on this article. Painted, played a short game, looked at the news online, and forgot to eat breakfast.. and now my stomach is growling as its 2:30 PM. So, I am off to raid the kitchen!

See you tomorrow my friends.
