Art inspires art. The visual and the verbal as two forms of expression often influence each other's evolution begetting painted stories or canvases of words. In visual narratives, the images or visual elements like paintings, pictures are key to the storytelling and it finds such a correlation in literature that they become integral to the narrative complementing or enhancing the text. Accordingly, this book aims to explore the intersection between visual arts and literature, a field often characterized by its capacity to generate unique and immersive experiences; delving into contemporary Turkish novels like Murat Guelsoy's?Painter Vasif's?History of?Secret Loves?and Guenduez Vassaf's?Painter's Rebellion. With this book, as far as Turkish art and literature scene is concerned, I hope to present a confluence of brush and pen uncovering how art shapes writing skills and visual journeys are important and effective tools of storytelling within a historical, cultural and artistic context. This book has a great potential to contribute not only to literary studies but also to the broader discourse on the creative process, and the cognitive aspects of creative writing by recognizing and appreciating the role of visual thinking.
