Composition The placement of the still
life on the paper is
interesting (at an angle,
not straight forward
and/or not dead center)
and it fills a majority of
the space. It appears
realistic and true to the
actual still life. There is
some negative space on
the paper that allows the
eye to rest appropriately.
Value Gradation: There are rich blacks,
bright whites, and a
multitude of shades of
grey. The layers have
been built up and
re-worked back into. The
shading gradation is
realistic. Object
highlights and shadows
are rendered well.
Drawing All objects are in correct
proportions. Accurate
Accuracy: observation has been
demonstrated in all
aspects of the drawing

highlights, reflections,
details)

The placement of the still
life is in the middle of the
page, although not at an
interesting angle, but
nicely placed. It fills a
majority of the space and
appears realistic to the
actual still life.
There are blacks, whites,
greys, and in certain areas
the layers of value have
been built up and
re-worked. Shadows are
consistent and realistic
with the light source.
Most objects are in correct
proportion. Accurate
observation is noticeable
in most areas of the
drawing.

The placement of the still
life is awkward. Either
there is too much
negative space around it
(in other words it is too
small for the piece of
paper) or it is too far to
one side.
There is one layer of
blacks, whites and a few
greys. The shading
gradation is mostly
realistic.
Some measurement is
shown by correct
proportions in an object
or two. Accurate
observation is seen in the
rendering of a few
specific details.
