A Visual Communication Glossary and
Resource Portal for
Graphic Designers and Writers

“To design is much more than simply to assemble, to order , or even to edit:  It is to add value and meaning, to illuminate, to simplify, to modify, to dignify, to dramatize, to persuade, and perhaps to amuse.

To design is to transform prose into poetry.”

— PAUL RAND

Visual Voice Netsource.com

is an original and curated blog on all things
Visual Communication and Digital Messaging
for writers, designers, and students of both disciplines, 
a journey of discovery, creative thought, and information sharing.

There’s a curious and critical relationship between the imagery we see and the words we read or hear that has a profound impact on how we interpret messages. The writer or designer who understands this relationship, and works to purposefully master it, is the one potential clients will want writing their copy and developing their visual brands.

My goal is that this blog will evolve into an enriching and  informative resource that explores all aspects of visual communication, from making it a career choice, to the history and development of print, typography, and digital media, to the essentials of great visual design and the mastery of compelling messaging. You’ll also find helpful resources to support your work and experiential insights to inspire your creativity.

welcome

Visual Voice Netsource is a blog about visual communication and digital messaging for writers, graphic and web designers, and especially for students who want to pursue this fascinating field.
This blog is about more than a picture being worth a thousand words, though. It’s meant to be an exploration of the complex relationship between words and images — and words as images.
