In preparation for the Final Critique and to help with writing your Artist Statement (see separate handout for writing a statement) Prepare your SELF-CRITIQUE – 1 page of notes in your journal…Respond to these questions: What does the artwork communicate? (It can be helpful to list adjectives here) What influences from your “master” artist are evident in your painted object? What is the most important aspect of the design in relaying the content of the work and why? (focal point) How does the use of color relate to the overall subject and content (mood) of the work? What is most successful about the piece and what do you think could be improved? – Consider/note How you achieved balance and movement in your composition. Are your value patterns strong? How is emphasis created? Ideation – what did you do? Surface preparation– any? Media or style that worked best for your rendering? What still needs attention? What phases of the process were most problematic? What you learned from creating this object that could affect your strategies for future work?
