Way to kick ass and chew bubblegum, girl!

Me, I always get the various impressionists confused, esp. Monet/Manet.

I love art. I have taken so many art history classes. I can identify so many artists. There was one that I had to toss a coin between Matisse and Chagall, but there was a Chagall further down the page so I figured the first one was a Matisse. And I was right.

See, I studied music history. Most of what I know of art history came as a side effect of studying music history. (Many of the stylistic periods/changes in both fields came about at roughly the same time, e.g. Renaissance 1400-1600, Baroque 1600-1750, Classical 1750-1825, Romantic 1825-1910. Those are the accepted "periods" for European music history; IIRC, European art history falls roughly into the same timeframes.)

I'm not big on visual art, generally. My most prized piece of visual artwork is a litho of this Canadian classic.

Awww...poor baby. Don't fret. I live and breathe art. I would have been really angry at myself if I hadn't gotten 100%.

I was actually surprised I got 88%. Like I said, my mother would have been proud. I always have trouble keeping Manet and Monet straight, and I think I goofed up some Kahlo and Rivera...
