I think this is a very interesting test for aspiring portrait artists.

I got 15 out of 20 correct. How does that compare with your score?

17 of of 20. It took me a few to get warmed up but after I saw the pattern, it was pretty easy. I missed 2 out of the first 5. Then only 1 for the rest. Cool link. Thanks.

11 out of 20... I thought that more than anything else, the study only reinforced the cliche about English teeth, and showed the current state of British dentistry more than anything else*. :-[



* Yes, I'm and Englishman with typically English teeth :P

Only 11/20 which shows I am male . Women will often get better results because of " a gut feeling " which is actually just the fact that they are more observant than men and have "wide angle lenses " for eyes that see a bigger area . Men have 300mm lenses for eyes and don't always see the whole picture .
