19. Knowing the difference
Just remember, if you can tell what it is, the artwork is Representational.

20. If it doesn’t look like anything…
It’s Non-Representational, also referred to as Non-Objective.
If you do a drawing and don’t mean it to look like a certain object, it’s Non-Representational.

21. If it started out as something…
… but ended up looking way different, it’s ABSTRACT Art.
When you take an actual object and abstract it so it’s not recognizable, you create Abstract Art.
