Illustration is a concentration in the BFA in Visual Arts, focused on creating images that communicate.

Illustration specializes in creating images that convey ideas and emotions. Students in this concentration work with analog and digital tools to cultivate a thorough understanding of form, composition, and color, think deeply about content, and develop their own artistic style.

Illustration is an essential element of comics and graphic novels, children’s books, storyboarding, and game design, and illustration skills are relevant to the fields of advertising, film, fashion, and theater.
