Communicate with color: Color is not just a decoration; Color provides meaning and enhances insight. The accompanying graphics show a "before" chart with multiple random colors for the bars and an "after" chart that shows the bars in shaded teal tones and gray, signifying Excellent to bad reviews (with Excellent being the darkest teal color). This is one of the lessons taught in the upcoming Data Visualization Essentials workshops. details found at levelUpMySkills.com/dataviz

Most people think data visualization is about making things pretty. It's not. It's about making things clear.

You know you've done it right when you design a chart or map that makes someone say "Oh wow, I didn't realize that."

An image of a spreadsheet transformed into an chart with insight. quote at the top by John Tukey from his book Exploratory Data Analysis "The greatest value of a picture is when it forces us to notice what we never expected to see."
