Aboriginal Australian and Native American. I don't know what they would be called.

I also like Monet.

I kind of like the Symbolist art, it doesn't entirely fall into any of those categories =0(

I answered figures, but I do have a special place in my heart for Jackson Pollack.

Give me the Old Dutch Masters every time. Aert Van der Neer is always a favorite:

This one had me gazing quite awhile at the Smithsonian. As you stand before it - the moonlight reflected by the water seems to emanate and spill into the room, almost like a laser etching does - only this was painted nearly 400 years ago. My best friend went there a couple of years later, I asked her if she'd gone to the art museum. She said "you wouldn't believe the painting I saw, it looked like the moonlight was streaming into the room!" (lol) I suppose there's a reason we stay friends with the people we choose, yah?

I like every kind of art. But I like symbolist art very much. I learn sybolist art for one year.
