Abstract
The concepts of story arc, character development, and literary conflicts are present not only in the written form but also in the visual. This research analyses the use of traditional literary elements within the visual arts throughout history and synthesizes the findings into original works. These original works demonstrate the overlap between the written and visual disciplines as well as the presentation of historical events through oral, written, and visual traditions.
