IllustrationIn the discipline of visual communication,pictures are still produced manuallydespite perfect photo and computertechnology. This programme of study isnot just about art, but also about targetedportrayal through the media of drawing,printing and painting. Thereforethis field of study is ideal for those whoare not only talented at drawing, butalso sensitive enough to be able to tailortheir work to a target audience.Nature studies, figurative drawing, graphictechnology, colour and design theoryare just a few examples of teachingcontent which future illustrators shouldlearn about, in order to take on projectsin the areas of Advertising Designs,Corporate Communication or LiteraryIllustration. In addition, according topersonal preference, there is a free choiceof experimental projects, cartoons orgraphic novels. The border between illustrationand art is fluid.
