Bill Pirkle posed a matching puzzle using words
from both music and art, and as a sucker for
puzzles, I had to give it a try:

MUSIC              ART
-------    -----------------------
melody    subject(s)
harmony  colour
tempo      perspective (or lack of)
form        subject layout
rhythm     brush strokes
timbre      light source and shadowing

Of course, there's no right or wrong answers here,
but we might expect to see a lot of commonality
in the answers. The vocabulary of one art form is
often used to express something in another art form
by way of metaphor.

But what does it prove, Bill?
