 **The visual arts are those arts discussed in your textbook.   
   **In addition: although the career field of nursing may be an art, it is not a visual art.  Although the human body is art, it is not a visual art in itself.  However, a nurse can use the visual arts (the artwork of Mary Cassatt for example) to promote mental well being of his/her patients and the human body can be used by artist in sculpture, photography etc. 
   **In addition:  not all visual images are visual artworks!!  Visual images include some advertising, medical illustrations, etc.  However, all visual artworks rely upon visual images- as all visual artwork are visual by nature.  If this is unclear for you- send your instructor a BB Message with your specific questions.

INTRODUCTION PARAGRAPH WITH THESIS STATEMENT
An introduction includes a topic introduction to engage the reader- yet keep it formal. A thesis statement provides the connection or theory you are going todiscuss in your essay.  (State career field, area of visual art and interdisciplinary connection to be made in essay.)
Example Thesis Statement (part 1):
The interdisciplinary connection between the visual arts and psychology will be the focus of this essay.
Example Thesis Statement (part 1 & 2 specific):
The interdisciplinary connection between the visual arts and psychology will be the focus of this essay. I will briefly discuss each area of study and how the field of psychology has influenced Surrealism, a style of art in the early twentieth century, which incorporated the dream state into art imagery.  The artwork of Jane Jones will be used to example this association between the visual arts and psychology. BODY
3-8 paragraphs: which should include a short description of your area of study as it relates to the thesis, a description of the visual arts aspect, and the supporting evidence (provided by required Scholarly source/s-documented with in at least 2 MLA in-text citations) connecting the two, and finally your short opinion paragraph of this connection.  ***Do not use section headings. CONCLUSION
Summarize your research in one additional conclusion paragraph.  Do not introduce any new ideas or information.  Reword or summarize the thesis statement and summarize how you came to this conclusion in the body. A good rule of thumb is to take a summary sentence, as it directly leads to the thesis, from each of your main paragraphs. WORKS CITED PAGE

A   Single American Nation

 Background: When the first world war began, African American leaders pressed the government to provide Black men the right to go to combat to prove their devotion to their country. Hoping that their service would lay a stake on citizenship that the nation would have no choice but to honor, the “New Negro” of the 1920s adopted a more militant stance toward civil rights. The civil rights struggle envisioned at the time, however, made few concrete gains. Discrimination and disenfranchisement persisted.
 

African American leaders responded to the second world war much as they had to the first, offering their services while expecting recognition in return. They intended to fight a “Double-V” campaign against fascism abroad and racism at home. They helped to kill fascism abroad; racist policies at home survived, but only for a time. Less than a decade after the war ended, the Brown case struck down the principle of “separate but equal” in schools. A grass-roots movement emerged to challenge discrimination elsewhere. By 1965, nonviolent means had murdered Jim Crow. Yet, the1960s were nothing if not a violent decade, marred by war, riots, and assassinations. By the end of the decade, Americans were as divided in some ways as they had ever been, and hopes for integration into a single American nation largely gave way to an emphasis on the unique needs and interests of different groups within the nation.
