Abstract

This chapter comprises a basic overview about visual literacy, discussion of art definitions, basic art concepts, elements and principles of design, differences between art, design, craft, technical issues, elements, and principles related to art, design, and many other disciplines, and the quality of display, among other topics. An example of translation from nature, with all resulting connotations, to the visual and the to the verbal and beyond the verbal takes the form of a project involving drawing an apple and then writing a short poem about the apple. The reader is invited to integrate meaning, visualization, and knowledge about an object.
