Based on the theory of visual narrative, explore innovative ideas for Cantonese culture-themed illustrations to help spread Cantonese culture. Analyze the creative themes and existing problems of illustrations, grasp the inner connection between material, behavioral and spiritual levels in the themes, and reflect the unity of narrative connotation and visual presentation. From six aspects: mining narrative content, determining narrative method, constructing narrative grid, extracting visual elements, establishing picture content, and giving narrative meaning, a design strategy for Cantonese cultural themed illustrations based on visual narrative is proposed to promote the interaction between viewers and illustrations. Visual connections, associative thinking and spiritual resonance. Integrating visual narrative strategies into Cantonese cultural themed illustrations can improve the communication efficiency of Cantonese cultural themed illustrations and better promote and spread positive social energy and sense of responsibility to the public.
