Hello everyone,
It is hard to decide who your favourite artist is, or which is your favourite artwork, and this is because there are countless artists around the world, but more importantly art takes many different forms. So, what is your favourite form of art?
I would really appreciate if you could take a minute of your time and answer the following poll. It will help me get an idea of which form of art people enjoy the most and more importantly it will help my research for future posts. Please choose only one.
Thank you very much for reading and completing my poll
Elli
Sorry can’t say which is my favourite one – too many equals to choose, but I can say which is my least favourite, if that helps: performance art. Love the painting at the top btw. Is it yours? CC
No, I only wish!
I don’t like those two faces… but am quite broadminded.Drawing or impressionistic painting are my style
Thank you for your reply
Hello Elli, ok so I voted for Paintings in the poll but I wanted to vote for a few other media too 🙂 I like your blog because there’s always something interesting to read about, whether it’s painting, sculpture, even Performance art, I don’t mind. That’s what makes it good, in my opinion, Best wishes, eoin
Thank you very much for your comment, really appreciate it!
Picked drawings. Awesome it’s getting such a good score.
Thank you for completing the poll!
I chose Paintings because that is what I am best at but I enjoy music as well mostly because I am not good at making it and I am both envious and in awe of those that do it with such ease
Thank you very much!
I ticked all the boxes, not to be clever or silly but I just love all forms of art. Chagall comes to mind but then as soon as I said that I could fill the computer with others. Thanks for posting something that makes us think.
Thank you for completing the poll and for commenting!
Impossible question! My true answer would be all!
Thanks for your comment!
Paintings 🙂
I love music, that is my favorite art. I noticed you didn’t include writing. Just wondering why not. I think I love reading at least as much as I love music. I’m not a writer (tho I am trying to learn how to be one now) but I get so much out of reading the works of others.
My blog focuses more on visual art and that is basically the reason why I did not include writing. Thank you for reading 🙂
Oh, yes, I noticed all the nice things on there.
New media! I am a firm believer in videogames as art, in fact i’ve just wrote about it!

You perhaps could ask us to put ’em in order of preference—with a chance to add some?
For myself I like art which is subtle, no obvious message (yuk) yet moves me deep down. Any image glorying the feminine has a head start (but please hold the ‘Rosie the riveter’ types) (too messagey).
I like subtle. And I love poetry—not the ersatz modern would-be ‘poems’ endlessly churned out on the web; but the rolling cadences as in Shakespeare, Tennyson and others, and my favourite is—
” … He heard the deep behind him, and a cry
before. Dry clash’d his harness
in the icy caves and barren chasms
and all to left and right
the bare black cliff clang’d round him as he based
his feet on juts of slippery crag that rang
sharp smitten with the dint or armed heels—
And on a sudden, lo, the level lake
the long glories of the winter moon …”
To appreciate such:
in the first place you have to know some of the story (the death of King Arthur after his final great battle ” … so all day long, the noise of battle rolled, among the mountains by the winter sea …”
and
in your life you have to have been there. Not literally in that waste land but to have experienced similar. I have; the effect is resonance.
So puppy poems by the naive in modern format (sound bites) turns me off, even though it is ‘art’.
To each his own.
That is a very good suggestion, thanks for commenting 🙂
So hard to choose! Every kind of art is inspiring. 🙂
