What Makes a Good Piece of Art

I picked this up from the Artist Society last month and I thought it also had relevence to photography. Obviously a good photo relies on some technical factors also, like focus and correct exposure, but I still thought it was an interesting perspective.

What Makes A Good Piece of Art
  • Use of the art elements - line, shape, tone, texture, pattern, colour, perspective

  • The art principles - Composition - aesthetically pleasing / interesting, balanced, harmony, format, style

  • Audience response - emotional, physical, psychological, spiritual
