The Critique Handbook by Kendall Buster and Paula Crawford

For me, the critique period is very helpful as I am trying to create my artwork. The combination of constructive criticism and my peers ideas are very helpful to me. I am able to see how others view my work and hear the changes they think I should make in order to improve my art work. The critique period is also a great and helpful time for me to ask my peers and teachers questions about my artwork. I am able to ask questions like is my art work is engaging and if my color pallet is working or not. I have learned not to take these comments to heart and not let them crush me or my vision for my art work. Instead, I have learned to view them as a way for me to just improve my pieces.

Even when I have my parents or teachers critique my school papers the comments can be harsh and hurtful, but in the end those are the comments that helped me to become a better writer. I am able to learn new skills from their comments and ideas and then incorporate them into my next pieces of writing.

In class, I think it is extremely important to slip the class in groups so that people can critique others artwork, but also ask questions about their own artwork. I think this will help each person become a better and more confident artist.
