Without looking at the caption the illustration is communicating with us that a man doing many things climbing a ladder to paint his house. We know this because he’s climbing a ladder with a paint bucket and brush. The artist places white paint splatter to show how busy he is.
The illustrations communicate ideas more freely because the art style is more natural. Illustration conveys different tones and more of a humanistic feel. Graphic design give entity’s more of a sharp and sleek feel, something more refined.
I feel like these visual cues were made to be in the comic section of a newspaper because the art style is more of a comic style. The time period was more of the 90s to early 2000s.
