<h1 class="p1" style="text-align: center;"><em><strong><span class="s1">&#8220;Illustrators are word people who happen to draw. We work with one foot in a book, the other stuck in a paint pot. Our shoes are a disgrace.&#8221;</span></strong></em></h1>
<p class="p1" style="text-align: center;"><span class="s1">—Wallace Tripp</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Illustration </strong>is art. An illustrator is an artist but not all artists are illustrators. Technically, an illustrator specializes in enhancing writing or illuminating concepts by providing a visual image that corresponds to the content of the related text or idea. <sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"></sup>Illustrations are used in advertisements, greeting cards, posters, books, storyboards, manuals, architectural rendering, business, magazines, shirts, video games, newspapers and <a href="https://wp.me/p9BzI3-di">billboards</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But in a blog post on <a href="http://illustrationart.blogspot.com/2011/10/old-question-finally-answered.html">Illustration Art</a> there is another well stated opinion I share:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span class="Apple-style-span">&#8220;In my view, there is no inherent difference between art and illustration except the way in which payment to the artist is processed.&#8221;</span></i></b></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Why did I turn to illustration? I like to get paid. Those art supplies can get expensive! And I need some new shoes&#8230;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
