The process of art criticism involves 4 actions. They are: describe, analyze, interpret and decide.

Some guidelines to help you are below:

Describe - what things are in the painting? Think of things like clothing, environment, etc.

Analyze - how are the elements of art (line, shape, form, texture, space, color and value) are used? How are the principles of unity pattern, rhythm, variety, balance, emphasis and proportion used?

Interpret - what is the artist trying to say to you? What is going on in the picture or artwork?

Judgement- What do I think about this artwork? Do I like it? Why or why not?

When you examine a work of art should you begin with the art criticism or the art history?

As a matter of philosophy, I would say, check out the art history - who the artist was, where he was located, materials he used and perhaps, who his contemporaries were. Art criticism is more about how successful the artist was in achieving his goal. With a knowledge of art history you would be able to understand more about the criticism.
