I took this art quiz, but I'm not sure where the quiz giver gets their ideas from. Although I do like impressionism, it certainly isn't my favorite movement. Their image sampling is a bit shallow in this regard, and there is a real deficit of contemporary works in relation to all the pieces by dead guys. I mean why not throw in some Rothko for example. Now those are some minimal and expressionistic works even the visually illiterate masses can appreciate because of the way the color resonates.
Haha, I must already be in a bad mood today to critique a quiz. Anyway here is the quiz, take it to pass the time if you wish:

Balanced, Secure, and Realistic.
Impressionism is a movement in French painting, sometimes called optical realism because of its almost scientific interest in the actual visual experience and effect of light and movement on appearance of objects. Impressionist paintings are balanced, use colored shadows, use pure color, broken brushstrokes, thick paint, and scenes from everyday life or nature.
People that like Impressionist paintings may not alway be what is deemed socially acceptable. They tend to move on their own path without always worrying that it may be offensive to others. They value friendships but because they also value honesty tend to have a few really good friends. They do not, however, like people that are rude and do not appreciate the ideas of others. They are secure enough in themselves that they can listen to the ideas of other people without it affecting their own final decisions. The world for them is not black and white but more in shades of grey and muted colors. They like things to be aestically pleasing, not stark and sharp. There are many ways to view things, and the impresssionist personality views the world from many different aspects. They enjoy life and try to keep a realistic viewpoint of things, but are not very open to new experiences. If they are content in their live they will be more than likely pleased to keep things just the way they are.
