Definition
美工 refers to the field of visual art design, especially in commercial settings like graphic design, web design, or illustration. It can also mean the person who does this work — an art designer. In modern Chinese, 美工 often implies practical, applied art (e.g., for print or digital media) rather than fine art or fine-arts painting.
