__ What is Constructive Criticism? __  Constructive criticism is used by many artists. This style of evaluating gives artists tips and ideas to help build their skills as an artist. Helpful tips include things such as:
 * ** Use sincere praise in a "Compliment Sandwich Technique" **. When you use the sandwich technique, you sandwich one bad point (as a request not a direct complaint) offset between two good points (compliments). Don't sound unfriendly or too intense, yet not so mushy as to not make the point clearly.
 *  **focus on valid and unbiased feedback and…**
 * **make your criticism clear, understandable, and relevant.**
 * Be real. Make sure you are stating something that you see that can really help the student.
 * Positive Comments include: Nice lines, nice subject choice, good balance, great art style.
 * Ways to give constructive criticism: Work on neatening, try using more colors/subjects, balance could be better, looks a bit unfinished.
 * **DO NOT SAY**: This sucks, you are a bad artist, bad choices for your colors, etc.

__**The right way of giving constructive criticism:**__
 * The poor way of giving constructive criticism:**
 * 1) That logo design sucks, who the heck would pay for something like that!?
 * 2) I hate red and green, why not use black and white instead!
 * 3) I can’t read the text.
 * 1) The balloon font used in the logo seems a bit too playful for your business, do you think a different might be more professional?
 * 2) 10% of the male population has red-green colorblindness, you might want to ensure that your color scheme won’t turn away potential customers.
 * 3) There isn’t much contrast between the background and text color, and the font size is a bit small, so the text is difficult to read.
