Abstract:

The domain of drawing is mapped as a matrix integrating the social functions of drawing with the systems of semiotic choices and levels of perception. Such a matrix facilitates students to realize meaning in drawings and facilitates viewers to negotiate meanings from drawings. It is proposed that understanding the domain of drawing empowers students' practice.
