An Illustration is a visualization such as a drawing, painting, photograph or other work of art that stresses subject more than form. The aim of an illustration is to elucidate or decorate a story, poem or piece of textual information (such as a newspaper article), traditionally by providing a visual representation of something described in the text.
In the visual art world, illustrators have sometimes been considered less important in comparison with fine artists and graphic designers. But as the result of computer game and comic industry growth, illustrations are becoming valued as popular and profitable art works that can acquire a wider market than the other two. Many illustrators have great artwork that is valued more than traditional artists.

Screen print effects
Screen printing is a process suited for printing on unconventional surfaces, such as clothing or outdoor signs. You won't find much screen printing done on paper, unless of course you look at the work of Andy Warhol or the poster art of Frank Kozik. Generally, paper is the domain of the four-colour process, or CMYK printing, which creates very precise results. Screen printing is far more rough and ready. Author: Computer Arts | Visits: 1235 |
