It's been my experience in writting about art that the goal is having a knowledge in the terms of elements (line, shape, form, value and color) as well as the principles (unity, variety, balance, etc!. see http://www!.msdsteuben!.k12!.in!.us/jrider/e!.!.!. so if you explain the painting using these terms should help!.
