Abstract
The scientific research article is a careful balance of factual information and social interaction in which academic writers need to make the results of their research public and persuasive. Although scientific communication through journal articles has a history spanning over 350 years, there remains significant potential for improvement. I hypothesize that compositional strategies employed by artists-particularly landscape artists-can enhance academic scientific writing by promoting interaction and improving persuasive communication. This article explores how principles fundamental to landscape art, such as notan, focal point, element hierarchy, the 80/20 rule, simplification, and repetition, can enhance scientific writing. Awareness and adoption of these artistic techniques can make the scientific writing process more engaging and enjoyable for lovers of science and art alike.
