Ashley's+Criteria

1. In my opinion, a good painting or good work of art is something that amazes you right when you look at it. 2. In my opinion, a good painting or good work of art is something that you can really relate to and is meaningful. 3. In my opinion, a good painting or good work of art is something that contains great quality. 4. In my opinion, a good painting or good work of art is something that expresses beauty, rhythm, and color. 5. In my opinion, painting or good work of art is something you can't keep your eyes off.

Jessica Stockholder met one of the criteria. I feel her work is not amazing to look at and doesn't distinguish a lot of meaning in her artwork. She doesn't express beauty but shows a few variety of color. However, she did produce something that you can't keep your eyes off of but not in a good way. Her work is something that anyone could do.

6. In my opinion, art has to be seen in concept.

Stockholder and the other artist Chagall both use a lot of colors in their artwork. They both incorporate meaning into their art and express new types of things. Marc Chagall is more traditional with his paintings and Jessica Stockholder's art looks like something that is quickly put together. - Marc Chagall
