In the article, the criteria of estimation and their features in the educational activity in the process of educating the academic drawing are considered. The publication examines the scientifically-methodical aspects, the diagnostics of the process of creating portrait and transmission of a visual image, and the represented nature. The author has especially noted that training in the graphic literacy is a difficult process of studying the ways, techniques and means of construction on the plane of a natural form, its proportions, the constructive, volume, spatial and material qualities. At the same time, all this does not testify to professionalism of the trainee as professionalism is demonstrated by completeness and depth of figurative understanding of a model by the artist, flexibility of his/her spatial ideas. Therefore, the work of students is evaluated not only by the literacy of graphic construction of a drawing, the transfer of similarity of the represented model but also by its expressiveness, harmony of perception, figurativeness of the portrayed. The process of training in drawing includes mastering of the entire system of imaging containing the graphic and expressive beginnings, harmony and integrity of the image. In the educational process, the graphic literacy includes a set of knowledge, skills received as a result of studying the basic provisions of the fine arts. Expressiveness is understood as the subjective, emotional relation of the artist to the portrayed, which is often connected with expressiveness of the represented model existing objectively with all contents and logical connections. An image can be considered correctly organized if all elements in it making a realistic image are coordinated and counterbalanced with respect to rhythm and scale. That is, an image can be considered competently and expressively organized if these coordinated and balanced elements are connected by an integral plastic plan expressing an emotional and figurative state of the object of imaging. Therefore, in the educational process, a certain set of problems of literacy and expressiveness of the image is always necessary.
