What are the Temperaments?
The Four Temperaments is a personality theory that dates back to the ancient Greek philosophers; the modern theory focuses on 4 main personality types, and the combinations between them:
-
Choleric
-
Melancholy
-
Phlegmatic
-
Sanguine
I grew up with the Four Temperaments as a running discussion in my home, and it still shapes how I perceive the people around me today.
The Temperaments Collection consists of:
-
4 24x36" watercolor paintings on canvas of the main Temperament Types
-
12 18x24" watercolor paintings on paper, illustrating the combinations
-
The model for each portrait is a real person who identifies as that specific type
-
The colors are chosen according to my personal color-theory
The collection will be released one section at a time: scroll down to see what is available!
