PENCIL RENDERING: Values (Art 2)

for the Unit: Values and Tonal Drawing

Very good demonstrations of many values; competence in techniques; very strong design in arrangement and contrasts.

Value differences are well presented; some parts many need strengthening; overall work done well.

Concept is generally undestood; value changes are evident and more could be presented; arrangement/contrasts could be strengthened.

Value changes too vague or lacking; quality of work needs more concentration and application of techniques.

PENCIL RENDERING: Shape Organization

Forms advanced in construction, arrangement and techniques used; shapes related well to one another in placement and applied techniques; strong in appearance.

Some shapes integrate well with others; good placement and techniques show that balance principles were understood and applied.

Better arrangement/balance needed between shapes and background; selected shapes may be too simply executed without concern to details or placement to each other.

Drawing of shapes needs to be stronger, more defined and accurate; composition and arrangement should be expanded more; shapes too small.

PENCIL RENDERING: Line and Surface Textures

Smooth and textured surfaces rendered with strong competence; each presented with excellent quality.

Contrast differences presented very well; shape contours expressed well and shadings effective; some arrangements/details could be stronger.

Drawing details attain basic expectations or better; generally a good and satisfactory presentation with some areas stronger than others.

Line contours, texture surfaces barely expressed; work needs more effort and application.

PENCIL RENDERING: Craftsmanship

Very high quality of workmanship; neat, precise, smudge-free and orderly forms in all constructions. Great work!

Very good work overall; some details may show minor flaws which take away from the perfection it could have. Very nice work!

General presentation, neatness and design clarity show that an overall effort was made to present the idea well; good basic art skills demonstrated.

Line contours, texture surfaces barely expressed; more effort and application required.
