JUDGING PROCEDURES • Western Art Definition - The subject matter for all artwork entered in the School Art Program must be Western Art. Western Art is defined as art that depicts the heritage, lifestyle, and landscapes of the West, both historical and present day.
The images depicted in this presentation are provided to stimulate ideas, and suggest new techniques. Copying ANY likeness of these images is not permitted as most are from professional artists. I realize that some of these techniques may not be suitable for some students’ abilities, nevertheless the presentation is to help you to inspire your students.
JUDGING CRITERIA – ALL ENTRIES 1. The following criteria will be considered when artwork is judged. Originality, creativity and composition will be heavily weighted along with the student’s ability to apply technical skill and artistic excellence. a. Originality: Is the concept or idea original? Is it the student’s own work and/or does the work show composition with multiple sources? Does it appeal to a wide-ranging audience? b. Creativity: Does the piece of art show the student’s imagination? Is the subject matter unique? Is the interpretation innovative? c. Skill: Skill is assessed based on the age of the artist. d. Excellence in 2D drawing: What extent of accuracy has the student achieved? How difficult is the chosen media? How well does the student draw, use colors, hues, shading and textures?

Choosing good sources; • Your source(s) should be of Western theme or heritage. • It is a good idea if you are using photos of family members, pets, etc. as a primary sources to add multiple western sources to complement them. • Go with unique sources and titles. • Subject should stimulate emotion to the your audience. • Ask yourself while choosing the source, would this be something I would hang in my home? • Think of how the auction buyers see the art!
Key Notes for 2019 - If not doing a monochromatic, use lots of color and contrast. - Titles are just as important as the art itself. - Check your sources ! - Double check your rules and make sure all images are appropriate, correct size and mediums are completely dry. - Allow your students to have fun with their art!
