Assignment #2


Fluency is being able to create many ideas. In order to be fluent, one must be able to form many different ideas about the same thing. Flexibility is being able to change from one idea to another. To me, this means being able to open to new ideas and not focusing on the first one that comes to mind. Originality is being able to create your own unique idea. Elaboration is being able to continue your idea in order to make it better.

Describe is the most basic stage of art criticism. In this stage, one describes the artist, the medium, how big the work of art is, and what characteristics the work of art contains. It is similar to a summary of a book. Analyze is the next stage which one uses the elements and principals of art and design to elaborate on the description. Interpret is one is thinking about what the work of art means, their feelings about the work, and any metaphors that may occur. Evaluate is the final stage in the Feldman Method. During this stage, one is able to state their perception of the work of art and why they liked it or not.
