Explanation: To critique a work of art, there are a 4 steps method:

Description: describe everything you see in the work: name of the artist, the title, what you observe, what media he/she used, the year it was created;

Analysis: describe how the artist uses the elements of art (line, shape, color, texture, space) and the principles of design (balance, movement, pattern, emphasis, contrast);

Interpretation: try to explain what is the meaning of the art, why the artist created it, what was he/she's idea for it, based on the 2 previous steps;

Judgment or Evaluate: make an opinion of why the art is worth it based on the other steps and give reasons for liking or disliking, its importance or the way it make you feel;

After going through each step, your evaluation or opinion will be expressed in the 4th step: Judgment.
