GRADING ART
Directions To be successful with each project; the stated outcomes must be reached. This
may Include style, medium, subject matter, and/or the process used.
Completeness The entire picture space should be used for positive and negative space
(foreground /background). Shapes should be enclosed. Patterns and colors
should completely fill an area. The style should be accurately applied.
Clarity All colors and patterns should be consistent throughout an area. Edges Should
be clearly defined. Enough detail should be used to hold a viewer’s interest.
There should be a contrast in values (lightness/darkness). A viewer should be able to clearly see everything at a distance of 10 feet.
Creativity Did the student explore new solutions? This may be applying the directions in a
new way, finding a unique way to use a tool, or discovering a new style.
