Importance of illustration in our life
Cultural gaps are bridged by the help of illustrations. In writing the books we have to create in different languages and multiple versions for readers, but when we are using illustrations we can convey messages only by drawing, anyone can understand the illustration language. Children can easily understand just by looking at the illustration. With an immediate vision of the characters, a child responds instantly to the visual appeal. From looking at the picture book characters we all understand the story of the book.
Drawing vs Illustration
The representations of an object or outline of a figure, and sketching using lines are the technique or art of Drawing. To decorate a text or to clarify the text we use a picture or an image that is called an illustration. The various forms of visual representations which include drawings are illustrations. A commercial value as a professional work is known as illustration whereas to show self-expression is known as drawing this is the main difference between drawing and illustration. Illustrations are always accompanied by text whereas drawings can stand alone as art.
