Realism

Limited

Viewer cannot tell what the drawing visually represents: images are not life like. Visual space is not depicted. Everything is flat. Drawing and value accuracy is VERY off.
Emerging

Viewer can barely tell what the drawing visually represents: the images are starting to emerge. An attempt was made at creating depth, but needs further development. Drawing and value accuracy is developing, but is not super accurate.
Skilled

Viewer has no trouble seeing and understanding what the drawing visually represents: objects are represented in a life like manner. Spacial depth has been achieved by mainly correct use of drawing and value.
Accomplished

Not only is the drawing clear and subject matter easily discerinible - the artist has also kept a consistency in the use of technique that a style is approached or achieved. Spacial depth is very clearly evident-it looks like you could reach right into the work and grab and object!
Composition

Limited

Composition was not unconsidered: The concept of arranging the formal elements in the image with an aim in mind not demonstrated. Balance is off. Size and space of paper was not considered. Did not go off of original selected thumbnail.
Emerging

Basic compositional elements present. Visual elements minimally grouped or placed within the artwork with an aim in mind for the work as a whole compositionally. Somewhat references the original selected thumbnail.
Skilled

Good command of the entire page and clear reasoning behind composition strategy: balance is mostly achieved. Work references the original selected thumbnail.
Accomplished

Outstanding and creative use of the page and visual elements all supporting a composition strategy. Work was slightly changed for the better from the original selected thumbnail.
Craftsmanship

Limited

Drawing is in poor condition. Paper is soiled, wrinkled, torn, etc... Demonstrates a lack of care for your work.
Emerging

Drawing in passable condition but will have some condition flaws. Demonstrates little care for the quality of your work.
Skilled

Drawing is in good condition with only very minor condition issues. Demonstrates care for the quality of your work.
Accomplished

Drawing is in perfect condition which means the edges are perfect and straight, no wrinkles, soiling, or other flaws. Demonstrates exceptional care for the quality of your work.
Use of value

Limited

Students use of value created an overall gray effect which hampered the depth of the drawing. Seems flat-lacks depth. Outlines are strongly evident.
Emerging

Student use of value has limited lights and darks leaving the drawing gray/flat. Creation of depth and accuracy of value is developing, but more work in needed. Outlines are still evident in some areas.
Skilled

Student has created a drawing that expresses a full range of lights and darks accurately. Outlines only occur VERY rarely. Edges are defined by changes of value verses line. Depth is well suggested and images seem to have form.
Accomplished

The students use of levels of value to create details and depth. Looks like you could reach right into the work and grab an object. Range and placement of values is exception. Absolutely no outlining exists in the work.
critical thinking and growth

Limited

Student did not pull upon previous knowledge and/or relied heavily on others for ideas and/or solutions. Did not follow requirements-ex. zooming in on a section of the still life verses recreating the entire view. Sighting was not used or used incorrectly resulting in inaccurate drawing. Use of value demonstrated lack of growth.
Emerging

Student relied on previous knowledge to create an acceptable piece but is still developing. Requirements were attempted but limited in their success. Sighting was attempted with limited success-more development needed. Value show minimal growth.
Skilled

Student was successful in trying new techniques by combining previous knowledge and problem solving; drawing has areas of innovation. Requirements were well met. Sighting was utilized mostly accurately. Value shows growth.
Accomplished

Student experimented with new techniques while successfully combining them with previous knowledge to create an innovative approach to problem solving. Requirements were exceptionally met with intention. Sighting and value show excellent growth.
