ILLUSTRATION
An illustration is a decoration,
interpretation or visual
explanation of a text, concept
or process, designed for
integration in published media,
such as posters, flyers,
magazines, books, teaching
materials, animations, video
games and films.
ILLUSTRATION
The origin of the word
“illustration” came from late
Middle English (in the sense
‘illumination; spiritual or
intellectual enlightenment’): via
Old French from Latin
illustration, from the verb
illustrate.
ILLUSTRATION
Contemporary illustration uses a
wide range of styles and
techniques, including drawing,
painting, printmaking, collage,
montage, digital design, multimedia,
3D modelling.
Depending
on the purpose,
illustration may be expressive,
stylized, realistic or highly
technical.
ILLUSTRATION
It is essential to understand why
illustration is important. In many
circumstances, illustrations are
much more effective than videos
and photographs.

“A picture is worth a
thousand words” is a
phrase that applies to the
design world.

you can imagine in your
head.

visually appealing way.

Safety Procedures in ILLUSTRATION /Drawing
Like any other TLE specialization, students under
Illustration shall observe safety procedures. The
following safety tips are made to prevent any accident
and hazards related to Illustration.
Safety Procedures in ILLUSTRATION /Drawing
1. Pencils
Pencils are made with graphite,
rather than lead and are not
considered a hazard.
Colored pencils have pigments
added to the graphite, but the
amounts are small so that there
is no significant risk of exposure.

2. Charcoal
Charcoal is usually made from
willow or vine sticks. Although
charcoal is just considered a
nuisance dust, inhalation of
large amounts of charcoal dust
can create chronic lung
problems through a mechanical
irritation and clogging effect.

3. Colored Chalks
Colored chalks are also
considered nuisance dusts.
Some chalks are dustier than
others. Individuals who have
asthma sometimes have
problems with dusty chalks, but
this is a nonspecific dust
reaction, not a toxic reaction.

4. Pastel Sticks
Pastel sticks consist of
pigments bound into solid form
by a resin. Inhalation of pastel
dusts is the major hazard.
Pastels can contain toxic
pigments such as chrome yellow
(lead chromate) which can
cause lung cancer, and
cadmium pigments (which can
cause kidney and lung damage

5. Crayons and Oil Pastels
Crayons and oil pastels do not
present an inhalation hazard,
and thus are much safer than
pastels. Some oil pastels can
contain toxic pigments, but this
is only a hazard by accidental
ingestion.
