what kind of artist are you??

[Thy Heavenly Yard]

i say expressionism  

[Doodle2215]

Neither really, I find that my moods affect how well I play, how fast etc. but I don't "attempt to bare ones soul". I don't really "capture impressions" either. To me expressionism and impressionism can occur simultaneously in music.

I feel that I'm mostly impressionist but a bit of an expressionist. I try my hardest to make use as few chords as possible and to be as simple as possible-hence the non-complicated/detailed part of my music. The main focus is my voice. But at the same time, I love singing my heart out and I try to make my songs stories.

Expressionism by far... I don't like to make impressions of anything or imitate anything in music... My music is all and only my soul and my feelings which is what makes it unique

EXPRESSIONISM: The broad term that describes emotional art, most often boldly executed and making free use of distortion and symbolic or invented color. Expressionism is the art that is used to attempt to bare ones soul.

IMPRESSIONISM: Impressionism in painting refers to a style that uses bold brush strokes to capture the escence of a subject without so much focus on detail or complicated technique. It is the artists immediate "impression" of something. So impressionism in music is often imitations of actual things. The band Pelican is somewhat impressionistic to me because their songs capture the feel of forces of nature. many impressionist musicians do not get enough credit because their music is so easy to learn and play.

Those are abstract styles of the early 19th century... and are no longer practiced at all.


...oh, by the way I'm Awesome!
