New Watercolor Painting Critique
Painting critiques are a great way to see your painting objectively from another person’s viewpoint. Critiques are also an excellent method of learning about art design, composition and color.
This is a personalized painting critique performed by me. The painting is called, “Chicken Coop at SKS Ranch” and is painting by a fan of Create38.
In the critique, I discuss the following:
A. Artistic Elements
- Idea
- Message
- Emotion
- Mood
B. Design Elements
- Composition
- Value Structure
- Focal Point
- Pathway
- Unity
- Variety
- Proportions
C. Technique
- Color Harmony
- Color Variation
- Application of Paint
Summary of Strengths
Suggestions for Improvements

It’s a great idea . I will do that as soon as my first serious paint is ready for sure .
Thanks Jahagir, I look forward to seeing your painting.

Much better than the last blog I read on watercolor painting!
Just discovered your site here ..looking around…like your style! Do you use rough paper? What kind and size of squirrel mop do you use?? Recognized this painting from an instructional book by Tony Couch. Been with the water media for 10 yrs. now perpetual student!! lol Phil
