Textural Underforms (2015) black sharpie, white butcher paper
New directions with Machine & Marker
Machine and Marker by M A Rosner
Machine and Marker is a series of drawings inspired by pen plotter machines, the early computer printers of the 1960s. Pen plotters work by reading digital line drawings and translating them into the computerized movement of a pen across a flat piece of paper, creating clean line drawings. I am intrigued by the simplicity of the line drawings pen plotters produce, however, their simplicity often lends best to utilitarian communication of information–what you see is what you get.
The Machine and Marker series works to challenge the simplicity of line drawings by exploring the line's ability to communicate complex imagery, illusions, and textures. Lines lose their singular identity and converge and intertwine with one another to create something much greater than its part(s).

Machine and Marker by M A Rosner
A new series of large-scale drawings that explore the limitations, aberrations, and challenges created when the machine and marker are deployed to draw.
The more drawings I produce, the more conscious I become of the variables of marker dryness, line density with marker depth, optical illusions as lines converge, and overall drawing composition as it connects two the growing series.
The machine is a ZÜND G3. The marker is a Sharpie black fine-point.
