Ooh, Paint. *splashes*

You are Painting.
You are one of the most versitile of the arts,
capable of creating nearly anything
(abstraction, realiism, even narrative) the
other arts pride themselves in. There is some
aspect of you which every other art form
intimately understands.
What form of art are you?

Just because I said I'd write about anything...

You're Herodotus! Father of history, father of
lies, and the first author of historical
fiction. Born in Halicarnassus in Asia Minor
in the early Fifth Century BCE, you wrote about
the Persian Wars -- why Persia and Greece came
into conflict in the first place, and why the
Greeks won. You also wrote about anything else
that piqued your interest and are famous for
collecting odd stories ... some of which were
pooh-poohed for years but have since been shown
to be more accurate than your detractors
claimed. You're not half as bad a historian as
you're made out to be. Your most famous
stylistic quirk is the "legomena," or
"They say...."
What famous ancient historian are you?
