27Illustrations can be used to add information to
scientific or technical texts. Large as Life,
Daytime Animals Text by Joanna
Cole Illustrations by Kenneth Lilly 1985
28Photography and digital artwork is often used to
illustrate products. Text is frequently treated
as a graphic component, adding visual interest to
illustrations, particularly in advertising.
29Illustrations can be used to provide conceptual
images. Effigia okeefeae, related to the
forbears of modern crocodiles. National
Geographic, March 2007
30 Illustrations can be used
to influence. Newspaper illustration by

You supply the drawings. Ill supply the war.

the decision to enter the Spanish American War in

31Illustrations can add a great deal to Creative
Writing. In the late 1800s, illustrators created
images full of action for novels and historical
fiction. On the Irrawaddy by
G.A. Henty, 1896
32Five Little Peppers How They Grew, by
Margaret Sidney, 1881
33Text is absorbed and understood in a linear
manner. In most cultures, this travels from left
to right and top to bottom.

Ice Age
Visual images are absorbed and understood all at
once.
features
a mammoth,
a sabertooth,
a squirrel
and a sloth.
34Text and Illustrations are both symbol systems.
Language is an expression of thought. Written
language is an expression of verbal
language. Understanding is achieved through
mastery of vocabulary, grammar and syntax. Rich
mental images and emotional response are achieved
through metaphor, simile, rhythm and tone.
Visual images incorporate many symbols within
specific cultural contexts. Illustrations provide
a wide range of images, from realistic to
suggestive to abstract. Through the use of color
and other elements, visual images elicit
emotional responses, often without engaging the
language/thought process.

39Deviation When the illustrator adds visual
information beyond what is written, the story can
be enhanced or expanded. If the illustrator
chooses to create images which are in opposition
to what is written, the story can become a farce
or satire.
40Continuous Narration Simplest type of
illustration A series of pictures depict the
action of the narrative. Theres a Nightmare in
