Recognize the elements of art and how they are arranged (the principles of design). Do
you see shapes arranged in a pattern? Where is the emphasis in the drawing? How are
the lines used, and where do they lead your eye? Next, interpret the artwork, or use
what you have learned so far to decide what the artist is trying to say. What is the mood
of the artwork? What does the subject matter tell you? Why do you think the artist
decided to portray it in this way? After completing these steps, you can begin to make
your own judgement of the artwork. Did the artist successfully use the principles of
design to organize the elements of art? Does the artist successfully convey the feelings,
mood, and ideas they were aiming for? Do you see ways that the artwork can be
improved?"
