Does the composition lead you through the work? Elements of Art: Does the work exhibit sureness in use of line, color, space, form, texture? Is there INTENT in each brushstroke? Unity and Variety: Does the work demonstrate a balance of elements and repetition? Does it display a visual rhythm? Medium and Texture: Does the work demonstrate an appropriate use of medium and textures? Use of Space: Does the work contain appropriate perspective and use of masses and forms? Presentation: Does the work have a professional appearance, complementary framing and/or mounting? Degree of Difficulty: Is the work appropriate for the Artist’s maturity and abilities?
