Abstract
This paper draws a correlation between processes of research and drawing by analyzing
the formation of emotional content and stylistic representation in art. The paper suggests
that research process fundamentally involves a systematic development of understanding
on a particular issue through a process of rational inquiry. The research outcome or an
intellectual understanding is therefore nothing more than a thoroughly investigated form
of a hypothesis/ premise/ theory/ idea that has undergone a careful process of scrutiny,
comparison and evaluation. On similar grounds, drawing process also involves a
systematic development of form in which adjustments are made with the help of nonverbal reasoning till the final form is evolved. The development of form in drawing
becomes a systematic rational process but operates at a subconscious plane; reason is
substituted by aesthetic sensibility. It is suggested that aesthetic sensibility is a judgment
that the human mind tailors through the use of non-verbal criteria of evaluating the
beautiful and ugly. The paper develops a theoretical model in the light of above and then
applies it to analyze various drawing conventions used by Sadequain in figurative
treatment.
