Critiquing your own artwork is an important artistic habit that will guide you in describing, evaluating and expanding your own creative skills. Critiques invite the encouragement and viewpoints of others while cultivating your own descriptive language. As an artist, you will benefit from this dialogue with your peers. Please feel free to ask to have your piece anonymously discussed.
Our format will be a 1.5-hour session. Each interested artist will share & receive feedback on the piece of artwork they bring to the critique. All 2D mediums will be accepted. We encourage artists interested in exploring the power of the critique who simply want to observe and absorb to also attend.
During this session you will learn critiquing skills alongside your peers. Your ability to describe your work will improve in this supportive environment.
Carol will explore:
-
Key elements on how to critique your own work
-
Learn about the compositional and spatial devices used by the Old Masters and Modernists, how they relate to each other and how to employ them in your work.
-
Using a constructive & positive approach supports our creative voice
