Formal Qualities generally means the most important and unique aspects about something. However, when mentioning Formal Qualities in art, it has a completely different meaning. It turns into an 'umbrella term' meaning it covers many different various aspects. When talking about Formal Qualities regarding a painting (for example) it means talk about the brushwork, the use of colour, the composition (arrangement) of the objects in their work, the space or lack of it and its effect. Plus, you could look at how the artists have created ddepth in their work (use of colour, blurring, perspective.) Also, look at how the artist has created form (3D objects) - tone, highlights.
