HOW TO SELF ANALYZE YOUR ART | How to Critique Your Own Artwork & Improve Your Art Technique

Timestamps brief description: 01:02 van Gogh example: 02:49 MOMA article: In this video, I discuss how to critique your own artwork. An aspiring artist who is serious about up-leveling their efforts will ask themselves, “how do I improve my art technique?“ before they are ever critiqued by others. In order for your art to reach a level that can be taken seriously by artists and teachers who know how to critique artwork, it’s essential to develop the ability to self analyze your art. Learning how to steal ideas like an artist will also help you improve your art technique, know where you are in the global conversation, and how your art innovates what has come before. Here are the specifics of what I cover in the video: 1. Describe - literally what you see. 2. Technical Organization - elements & principles of art & design 3. Interpret - does the piece stand for or mean anything? 4. Judge - what do you think about it? 5. Technique Absorption - the take away. what are you taking away from the analysis? what techniques or styles do you want to add to your own work? I go through a Robert Rauschenberg painting I love and how I broke down his work to add elements and techniques to my own style.
