Kia ora Ryley, this is a good start to your description, but it needs to cover more. Where inside the picture frame is the god positioned? how? does he lean to the side, sit symmetrically or asymmetrically? Does he touch the edges of the frame or can you see behind him? You need to specifically explain these points. As you do so, you will notice why the artist has made some of these decisions for conceptual or thematic purposes. You also need a thumbnail sketch of the piece you are specifically talking about, which makes clear what you think the focal point is and where the leading lines within the image are that push you to that focal point. That is a specific analysis that means you are 'reading' the art work in order to learn from it, not just enjoy its visuals.
