Consider the impact that Words & Images have on society

Words, images, advertisements, photography, and media engulf our lives. So, I pose these two questions when viewing my postings:

How do visual and verbal rhetoric affect society? How do they shape communities, people, and cultures?

Both visual and verbal rhetoric influence how people think, feel, and react to what they see or hear. No matter how small the intent, words, images, advertisements, photography, and the media have the power to change a community(s), a person(s), or culture(s).

D'BLOGALA

It's funny how I ran into this blog... In her 3rd grade English class, my 9-year old step-sister wrote a poem about slavery. I was so impressed by her poem, I started browsing the web for children's writing books. I feel like I have to foster her talent! I stumbled across Doodle Diary: Art Journaling For Girls. It "combines images with words and art journaling techniques." Although it's not all writing, it will expose her to other art forms. Dawn DeVries Sokol's is the author and her blog, d'blogala, is just a collection design work and art journaling, but I think it's worth following... It's always good to have creative influences around you when brainstorming and working on a project.
