3. Describing What You See | 描述你看到的内容
Begin by describing the artwork as if to someone who cannot see it. Note the subject matter: what is happening? Who or what is depicted? Describe the main figures, objects, and setting.
首先，像给看不见的人描述一样来讲述这件作品。注意主题内容：正在发生什么？描绘了谁或什么？描述主要人物、物体和场景。
Next, mention the colours, shapes, and lines you notice. Use simple adjectives: bright, dark, curving, jagged, smooth. The goal is to capture the overall visual impression.
接着，提及你注意到的颜色、形状和线条。使用简单的形容词：明亮、黑暗、弯曲、锯齿状、光滑。目标是捕捉整体的视觉印象。

4. Analysing Visual Elements | 分析视觉元素
Now move from description to analysis. Artworks are built from visual elements such as line, shape, colour, value (light and dark), texture, and space. Examine how the artist used each element.
现在从描述转向分析。艺术作品是由线条、形状、色彩、明暗（光影）、质感和空间等视觉元素构成的。研究艺术家是如何运用每一种元素的。
- Line: Notice whether lines are thick, thin, straight, curved, or implied. How do they guide your eye? 线条：留意线条是粗、细、直、曲还是暗示的。它们如何引导你的视线？
- Shape: Identify geometric or organic shapes. Are they repeated? 形状：识别几何形状或有机形状。它们是否重复出现？
- Colour: Observe the dominant colours and their combinations. 色彩：观察主色调及其组合。
- Value: Look for areas of light and shadow that create depth. 明暗：寻找形成深度的亮部和暗部。
- Texture: Is the surface smooth, rough, or implied through brushstrokes? 质感：表面是光滑、粗糙，还是通过笔触暗示的？
- Space: Consider positive and negative space, perspective, and depth. 空间：考虑正负空间、透视和深度。
5. Exploring Colour and Mood | 探索色彩与情绪
Colour plays a powerful role in creating mood. Warm colours like red, orange, and yellow can evoke feelings of energy, warmth, or danger. Cool colours like blue, green, and purple often suggest calm, sadness, or mystery.
色彩在营造情绪方面起着强大的作用。红、橙、黄等暖色可以唤起活力、温暖或危险的感觉。蓝、绿、紫等冷色常常暗示平静、悲伤或神秘。
Look at the dominant colours in the artwork. Is the palette harmonious (colours next to each other on the colour wheel) or contrasting (opposite colours)? How does the colour choice affect your emotional response?
观察作品中的主色调。调色板是和谐的（色轮上相邻的颜色）还是对比的（互补色）？色彩选择如何影响你的情绪反应？
