    """""""Nandalal preferred drawing from life, often sketching outdoors with the subject being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings, animals and birds or anything that he found fascinating. In his pencil sketches he has experimented with the use of lines to add texture, vigour and life to his sketches. This sketch is a rendition of a woman, feeding her child, rendered in dark pencil and brush strokes that suggest the modelling of the body highlighting the facial features of the figure."""""""
