Right! Second, when you
describe it, you will explain
more. Does it have a certain
style, is it using any symbols,
or is it telling a story?
Identify, describe,
and document?
What does that
mean?
How to Identify, Describe, & Visually Document
Wow! Can I see
the painting?
Sure, let’s go!
That’s it! Right now I’m
following these steps to
learn more about my
grandma’s painting. I heard
it was made by a famous
artist!
So you put all your facts
together and then come
up with a way to visually
arrange it so it’s easy to
understand?
Third, when you visually
document an artwork, you
are collecting text, images,
graphics, charts, and more
information about it.
That makes sense.
It helps to give
more background
knowledge.
Sure! First, when you
identify a place or an object,
you provide basic
information like the title,
artist, medium, and date
of creation.
Oh hi, Enzo.
I’m working on
an art project.
What are
you working
on, Alex?
Oh! Identifying an artwork
means naming it and saying who
made it. When we describe it,
we talk about what it looks like
and its meaning.
Correct!
I’m thinking about how
I will identify, describe,
and document something
important to me for
my art project.
Can you explain
each step?
