One World, One Heart Event

PhotoNOTE: POSTING TO COMMENTS CLOSE ON WEDNESDAY FEB. 11 at 5:00 CENTRAL TIME. AT THAT TIME, I WILL BE CHOOSING THE WINNER OF MY GIVE AWAY.

I am a participant again this year in this great event. Click on the logo to learn more about it. It gives bloggers a chance to get to know one another and share their art and handiwork. Part of the event includes having a "give away" and sharing one's art with the world.

My give away is an Artist Trading Card I made for a swap. I also will be sending along with the ATC some "goodies" to enhance your own art - whether you are a scrapbooker, collage and mixed media artist or just love pretty things.

Leave a comment to win the ATC and the goodie bag of fun stuff. This event ends on February
12 and I will pick one winner from those of you who post comments on this blog post.

As an added bonus, your name will be added twice if you leave in your comment YOUR personal definition of VISUAL LITERACY. This is an area of interest of mine and I want to know how others define this very nebulous concept.



Thanks and check out the rest of my artwork on my blog.

Love that piece! :) Please do enter me into your drawing ... then come visit my blog & enter mine!! :D

Visual literacy? Hadn't really considered the concept. I would think it would be a skill requiring conversance with imagery.

I love goody bags and surprises.
Visual Literacy(my short version def)Not limited to art... the ability to process the communication/meaning in a snapshot or slice of life, constantly changing every moment... makes use of all the senses collectively to form an overall impression...i.e
authentic..in the moment visualizing. Does that make sense to you? It does to me :)

Love the ATC and I love surprises, so a goody bag sounds fun to me! Thanks for the chance to win.

Visual Literacy - quite honestly I haven't heard the term before but I would say it is using images/ photos/art to communicate a feeling/a place in time without words.

I'm a very visual person, and I guess my definition of visual literacy would be recognizing visual cues and understanding what they mean to the world around me. Intrigueing question.

I love your ATC and a goody bag would be fun--please enter me!

Anonymous said...

I'm an ATC addict, so this giveaway is perfect for me. I don't know what the textbook def. of visual literacy is, but I'd think it's the ability to look at something, see it from many angles, place it in context and understand how it would look in other contexts; processing visual cues, automatically analyzing the visual in many ways.

I would love a chance to win!

so lovely! and visual literacy, hmmm... i think that as far as art is concerned, it is being able to see art as art, and appreciate the work, and be moved by it. my bff is an art teacher, i'm going to pick her brain about this, because now i'm all thinking.

How lovely! Please count me in. :)

And "visual literacy"... wow, that's a new concept for me. When I think of literacy I think of one who is possessed of a broad familiarity with classic works of literature which enables that person to understand and create allusions, etc. So I suppose, in that vein, one who is visually literate would mean one who is familiar with the varied schools of art to an extent which enables that person to understand, and perhaps produce, works that fit into or allude to various artistic styles and classic works.
Maybe? :)

Please do feel free, too, to stop by my blog to enter my own OWOH giveaway!

Monique Kleinhans said...

How would I define VISUAL LITERACY?
I suppose I see it as being able to understand (or read) the message conveyed in a visual form. Just as one might be able to read or recognize a few words from a page of a book, that does not mean you truly comprehend the meaning of the story... Just my two cents ;)

As for your giveaway I'd love to be entered! I've also got a small offering at my blog as well (#94 on Lisa's list) or just stop by www.thelightifind.blogspot.com

I would say visual literacy to me would be seeing beyond what you see. Looking at photo of say a flower and not just seeing the flower, but seeing the time of day, the wind, the moment, not just the flower. Please count me in and come stop my blog to check out my giveaway too!

said...

Please include me in the drawing for your beautiful ATC.

I've never studied visual literacy in any form, but in the most basic terms I would think that it means being able to comprehend a meaning from an image. Although one person's visual literacy will not be the same as the next person's.

Franny said...

Oh it can't get better than this! I am a digital scrapbook designer....I would jump for joy to win something the day after my 20th anniversary!

I love the piece of art you have chosen to giveaway. Please enter me in your drawing.

I think visual literacy is a subconscious reaction to an image. Somewhere along the way, learned behavior or natural instinct, we associate the image with an emotion.

Visual Literacy to me is the ability to be able to see with your eyes something from within yourself and perfect it to an artform of your chosing. And just wanted you to know I enjoyed cruising through your site.

Unknown said...

To me, visual literacy is the ability to use language to discuss/describe the visual. Terminology such as space, chroma,texture, etc. Without first having verbal literacy, visual literacy may be hard to come by.
I hope you'll stop by and check out my giveaway, too.

Sarahlé said...

Well, for me, visual literacy is a good way to communicate with many people without using words - I think images are alternatively used instead of words because they appeal to a common "memory" among people, whereas words aren't so universal; am I clear enough? Sorry for my poor English...
Please count me in, I would be delighted to have your nice giveaway :)
Many thanks to you, have a great day

What a beautiful ATC card! And a surprise to go along with it, how fantastic.
Visual literacy... I would have to say to me it means to interpret the meaning of an image, piece of art, design, etc. without the use of words or an explanation. One example would be that of the drawings they found in ancient Egyptian tombs and pyramids. They were able to understand more about the Egyptians by their drawings.

Christine said...

I think Visual Literacy would be being able to appreciate artwork whether you actually like it or not. I can always appreciate the beauty that an artist might have intended even it might not be my taste.

However, I love your ATC. I have been wanting to collect ATCs but have not done it yet. If I receive your giveaway, I will make my first ATC and give it to you.

Visual literacy - Hadn't considered it...but for me...it would be 'reading thoughts, emotions, ideas' through an object as opposed to the written word.

You have given me something to ponder! Thanks!

That is an interesting concept Geri. Visual literacy. I guess that is learning to appreciate art in all it many and varied forms not just the classical.
I would love to win your ATC and goodies too.
Please enter me into the draw and thanks for your generosity.
