I chose the painting "The Flames" by Jackson Pollock.

Descriptive Critic

"Good descriptive critics call our attention to what we otherwise might miss in an artistic form." (Jacobus, 2018, pg 49) This painting is known for its detail of color, "the brilliant reds, the orange-whites, and the deep contrasts in the blacks". (Jacobus, 2018, pg 47) This painting also shows Pollock's drip painting technique, which he would be famous for. (Gurney, 2020) From this painting, some would think it is a painting of hell, while others might think it is just something dreadful all together. "But closer examination shows the formal order in the center of the painting, creating a triangular structure controlled by the angular red flames rising to the top center." (Jacobus, 2018, pg 47)

Interpretive Critic

Interpretive criticism reveals transformation of subject matter and how that has been accomplished. In this painting most think Pollock has painted hell. But during the time he paints this piece "Pollock was influenced in 1936 by the works of José Clemente Orozco, which portray war in Mexico and threats to civilization. Destruction and skeletons figure in much of Orozco's work in the 1930s". (Jacobus, 2018, pg 47)

Evaluative Critic

Evaluative criticism tells us the quality and excellence of the work. (Jacobus, 2018, pg 47) For me in this painting he does use excellent colors and I since in the center of the painting some type of illusion of a monster. I definitely see something dreadful. I found this painting very interesting.
