Art Exhibition Article Thoughts

1.) The projects I looked at were: 
I Dream in Dog by Lisa Dembowski
Made of Itself by Elias Taveras
The Queen City by Joe Frangione

2.) I selected to critique I Dream in Dog because it immediately grabbed me attention. Being a dog lover I was intrigued. 

3.) I have never written any type of art critique before, so the whole experience was new to me. That being said I found it fairly easy to write and didn't run into any major roadblocks when writing. It probably helped that I enjoyed the exhibit I was writing about.

4.) I was comfortable critiquing my peer's work. Perhaps it would be different if I actually knew who Lisa was, or had to critique her face to face. It also made it easier because I didn't feel the exhibit needed much critiquing, and I am by no means an expert but I thought it was overall a very well put together exhibit.

5.) I don't know how I would feel about reading critiques made on my exhibit. I guess I would be okay with seeing what they said. I know that I am by no means an artsy type of person and knowing that I did my best and I'm sure there are many improvements that I could have made I think I could take a little constructive criticism. 

6.) I would say my article is maybe an 8. I feel like I did a good job, but I don't have much to compare it with and since it is my first I'm sure it's not perfect. I felt good writing it and didn't mind writing it so I'm hoping that shows in my writing.

7.) I dreaded doing the article. I have put it off until now. Once I got started though it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be and I enjoyed looking at everyone's exhibits, everyone has something unique to offer and there were so many wonderful exhibits to pick from.
