Chapter Ten
Graphic Design and Illustration
Due to time constraints, we will cover the subject of graphic design and illustration very lightly. I would like for you to know only a couple of illustrators who have made a major impact on the field of illustration. I would also like for you to know what a "logo" is.
Please learn about the life and career of N.C. Wyeth.
Please learn about the life and career of Norman Rockwell.
Both N.C. Wyeth and Norman Rockwell were brushed off by the art establishment in the 20th century as being "mere" illustrators. I contend that it is Wyeth and Rockwell (not Pollock, Warhol, Duchamp and others like them who purveyed utter nonsense as art) who will be remembered in history as the truly great artists of the 20th century.
