All artists make improvements to their work as they go. No amount of sketches, experiments and planning can alter that fact that sometimes, elements within a project will have to be altered, enhanced, changed or even excluded. Sometimes this is not apparent until the artwork is under way, which can either be a frustrating moment or a golden opportunity to produce work which exceeds expectations.

Feedback or critiquing is a key element in artist development, especially for this age group where ideas may be plentiful but control of media or understanding of processes are not yet fully-developed skills. Words of advice from peers or tutors can often help a developing artist see new perspectives beyond their own and therefore make changes and improvements.

Sometimes this may mean simply correcting some errant pencil strokes in a sketch, but often it may mean adding a new element to the piece, changing the construction or composition or even treating the original work as a learning platform in order to completely start again.
