I really like your reproduction on this piece overall. From a creativity standpoint it is a really interesting idea to make a gif with very small differences between the frames, and so I would give you a 10 on creativity. In terms of execution you have clearly done what you wanted to do effectively so I would give you a 9 on execution. The only thing that could be seen as aesthetically displeasing is the graininess of the gif, but that could have artistic merit on its own. Your piece is well informed on the themes of Rothko's No.2 and you knew that you wanted to play with emotion the way the original work did, and so I give you a 10 on context. And finally, your documentation is a 9 because I would have like to hear a bit more on how you felt looking at the finished product compared to the original.
Creativity: I like the idea that using gif to present the nuance of the frames and make the painting dynamic.
Execution: From my perspective the gif is really successful in presenting the subtle changes in frames.
Context: Your comprehension of emotion and how to present emotion is well displayed in the gif.
Documentation: The documentation articulates your understanding and feelings about the original work and your recreation, looks good to me:)
Very interesting final product. The subtle changing of the center color bar is evocative and adequately expresses what you summarized in your approach. Very thorough analysis of the emotional quality of the painting, and it informs your final product.
