In this project, I explored how non-pictorial drawing may represent concrete experiencethrough a specific vocabularyof marks, tonality, and compositional gesture.

The force I chose to study wasgrowth. I attempted to to create something that displayed an on going process, as life and growth is a process that spans over a certain amount of time.

In this drawing I attempted to visually show multiplication which represented growth, with a variety of different marks.

Furthermore represented growth by unfolding marks, with smaller marks building up den-sity as it progressed through the page.

Investigations of drawings with differences in scale, amount of marks, and positive and nega-tive variations.

ForcesGregory Falconi

Attempt to create differences in marks by trying to keep it static, or by differences in value.

Two most successful draw-ings from investigations. The complexity of the language correlates with the complexity of life and growth.
