Here's what I got after submitting a one minute MS Paint piece of junk...

Fascinating. Earth is one of the most complex sophisticated and varied worlds in any universe. It is populated by billions of people who speak hundreds of languages and live in frozen wastelands and urban jungles and desert dunes and chains of tropical islands. And this is the best you could come up with? Are you familiar with the work of Sanjean Adamek? Have you considered a change of career?

Pretty similar response for my effort (category A):

All artistic judgement is necessarily subjective. Your work has captured the notion that appearances can be deceptive. Hooker's apparent demotion from detective to sergeant was mirrored by a reciprocal change from plain clothes to uniform essentially transforming him from pseudo-civilian into uniformed crusader. His drop in police status actually enhanced his image as superhero. In a similar way the unpromising appearance of your work playfully hints at the hidden potential of an unseen masterpiece. Have you considered a change of career?
_________________Like your hero TJ Hooker you tackle challenges head-on with determination and vigour paying scant attention to the law. This devil-may-care attitude may work for fictional crimefighters but it can be counterproductive in real life.

Well this was certainly unexpected. Torment seems to elicit your creative juices. Like the grapes of Harbin you must be crushed before you achieve your potential. It is not always possible to translate a creative vision into reality. Inevitably artistic standards between our two cultures differ. I don't know much about art but I know what you're like.

Clearly a lot of work has gone into this. All human life has at its base a drive towards survival. The body regards food as a finite resource and even thousands of years of civilisation has failed to tame our fear that the next meal may never come. The absent snack can be seen as a foreshadowing of our own death and ultimately the extinction of our race. Your work has sought to capture this theme in its own meagre way. It is not always possible to translate a creative vision into reality. Have you considered a change of career?

Clearly a lot of work has gone into this. Creativity is born of desire. Contentment leads only to stasis and inertia. By examining the emptiness of afternoon hunger you have been pulled forward into a more creative mindset. Remember this feeling each time you reach for a biscuit. Are you familiar with the work of Sanjean Adamek? Have you considered a change of career?

Test Results! Woo! Here is my effort and Oistins assessment

Fascinating. A true artist can see beyond the visual. They can hear what remains silent. They can touch what is intangible. Your work has captured the essence of the Earth condition and distilled it then reduced it to its smallest form and hidden it out of sight. Are you familiar with the work of Sanjean Adamek? Inevitably artistic standards between our two cultures differ. Have you considered a change of career?
