These new illustrations by Sayo-Art for How It Works Magazine demonstrate the ways graphics and text can be integrated to create features that are simultaneously compelling and educational. SayoStudios works hard to create illustrations custom fit to your layout and space needs for text. Below, each image is shown by itself and then in the magazine layout, exhibiting how the client incorporated the artwork with the captions and labels. There are various ways images and text can enhance each other, and Sayo-Art can help by giving you the art as a framework to build upon, work the art around already formatted text, or insert and design the copy you provide.
