Ya Chun meets Mondrian

I like straight lines. I like being told to color within the lines. I never thought of Mondrian as abstract art, because his work is composed of straight lines. And I understand straight lines.

Now, there's this handy little internet do-hickey that will make 'you' into straight lines (all very well explained by Niobe).

This is 'me:'


Can straight lines and colored blocks portray a person?

Apparently, I am as wide as I am tall. Or, um, I like balance? Well, brown is my favorite color, so I guess that's good. I like plants and gardening, is that how that green got in there? The quiz asks if you have children, but doesn't ask about if any have died. Would that introduce a diagonal or a jagged line? I feel that a nasty crack should be right across that image.

It's cool, isn't it? I have done it a few times, always with the same answers but it never looks the same. I guess we are all fluid. Now if I could just get it to copy like Niobe explained I might actually post it...

I like the brown and blue. It's a lovely portrait even though I'm not sure what it means, either.

Very cool (and slightly over my head, I'm confused)
