“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.
