To really get to know a work of art, you have to look at it. But just staring at something doesn’t necessarily bring profound revelations- you need to know how to look and what to look for. In this video, you’ll get my top tips for looking at art: both online and in person.
My tips:
1. Get the best quality image possible
2. Look at the work of art for a minute, without judgement
3. Look for details
