A picture can be worth 1,000 words. Illustration is a time honored way to craft a message or tell a story visually. It’s complimentary, and sheds light on content of any medium. It catches a viewers eye and draws them in. It can be as simple as a diagram in IKEA instructions or as complex as the Sistine Chapel. It’s an effective way to visualize a concept and bring something from imagination one step closer to life. It can be used to add interest to reports and articles, announce covers and event posters, or provide imagery for story boards, concept art and pre-visualization.
