Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes how the meaning and composition of visual language elements, the establishing a system of relationships between them, combined with the experiences, ingenuity and personality of the artist it creates communicative representations loaded with strong aesthetic and emotional meanings. The artist, depending on his own style and his expressive intention, chooses during the creation process his type and number of technical variations in order to be able to render aesthetic, significant and intelligible emotions. The visual communication is achieved through the elements of visual language, with the plurality of combination and interpretation possibilities, so that by using metaphors and symbols, and inventive ways of conveying the message, through the particularity of compositional solutions and techniques the artwork comes to light. We will exemplify this analysis through artistic representations which highlights the creativity of artists by expressing a system of interconnection between the visual language elements.
