Evaluation compares the work with criteria using evidence.
How to evaluate
- Observe carefully: identify the materials, processes, and ideas, and how they connect.
- Consider whether the components show synthesis 综合 — parts working as one.
- Support every judgement with visual evidence.

Critique 评图 names visual evidence: line, tone, and composition in a master drawing

Evidence, criteria, and description make evaluation; pure taste does not.

Evaluation = judge; critique = feedback; synthesis = integration.
Critique
- Evaluation can be informal (as you work) or formal (a critique with peers or a teacher).
- Feedback from others reveals what you cannot see yourself.
- Reflecting on evaluation improves your later thinking and making.
A useful critique gives general praise without pointing to anything specific in the work.

False. A useful critique points to visual evidence in the work that supports each judgement.
Evaluation is not just "I like it" or "it's good". It uses visual evidence against criteria — pointing to what in the work supports the judgement. In a critique, describe what you see and connect it to the criteria, rather than giving vague praise.
In a critique, instead of "nice colours", a student says: "The complementary blue and orange (evidence) create strong emphasis on the figure (criterion: focal point), and the rough texture ties to the idea of decay (synthesis)." That is real evaluation.
Evaluation uses visual evidence against criteria (like the scoring guidelines). Observe the materials, processes, and ideas and whether they show synthesis. A critique — informal or formal — provides feedback, and reflecting on it improves later work.
Write from a second version with more space
- Version 1 crowds the figure.
- Version 2 leaves more empty space, and the figure is easier to read.
Version 1 crowds the figure. Version 2 leaves more empty space and the figure is easier to read. How should a critique use that comparison?
Evidence is what a viewer can see, not a feeling alone.
What makes the comment about version 2 a real critique?

The empty space is evidence a viewer can check.
