Visual Art
The visual arts are forms that focus on the creation of works which are primariy visual in nature, such as traditional plastic arts (drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, and printmaking), modern visual arts (photography, video, and film making), and design and crafts. Many artistic disciplines (performing arts, language arts, textile arts, and culinary arts) involve aspects of the visual arts as well as other types, so these definitions are not strict.


Applied Arts
Applied arts refer to the application of design and aesthetics (the way something looks) to objects of function and everyday use. The applied artist uses design and creative thought to construct useful objects (such as a Yoda-shaped slurpee cup or decorative park bench).
