Grim Reaper that I put together last night. I was looking at personality types
this afternoon and found this on Google. Thought it was pretty interesting.

The following ten traits and characteristics are typical of the Artistic personality type.

Mood swings.
Those of the Artistic temperament tend to experience a greater range of emotion than those of any other type. They are very emotionally reactive.

Artistic inclinations.
The Artistic type is the most inclined of all the types to be involved with the fine arts, music, or literature. They take an artistic approach to all aspects of their lives.

Independent work. Like "the majority of poets, novelists, composers, and to a lesser extent, of painters and sculptors," those of the Artistic type "are bound to spend a great deal of their time alone. "

Relationships secondary.
Those of the Artistic temperament "are quite likely to choose relationships which will further their work rather than relationships which are intrinsically rewarding, and their spouses may well find that marital relations take second place."

Great productivity.
Persons of the Artistic type are highly disciplined, gifted with superior powers of concentration, and capable of producing great quantities of high quality work; they also enjoy frequent periods of recreation and inactivity.

Disinhibition.
They are hedonistic and impulsive; "they live Epicurean lives in the here and now, and as gracefully as possible."

Keen perceptions.
The Artistic temperament is especially attuned to color, line, texture, shading - touch, motion, seeing, and hearing in harmony. The senses of Artistic individuals seem more keenly tuned than those of others

Kindness
Although those of the Artistic type may adopt an aggressive, tough exterior, they are remarkably gentle, kind, and generous.

Extroversion and introversion.
The interpersonal conduct of those of the Artistic type alternates between the greatest extremes of sociability and social reticence.

Love of nature.
In many individuals of the Artistic type there "may be found an instinctive longing for the natural, the pastoral, the bucolic. They are quite at home in the wilds, and nature seems to welcome them."
