All completed work must represent "compositions"
rather than "studies."
A composition recognizes the whole space. There
is drawing of more than a single form in the
whole space. In a composition, objects are
seen in an environment. Studies are practice
drawings which which are done for skill building
or to help develope part of an idea. Studies
are not always whole compositions.

completeness and a grade for the quality of
