    Nandalal preferred drawing from life, often sketching outdoors with the subjects being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings and animals. In the above sketch the artist has depicted a man wearing a dhoti and standing with a stick on a hilly terrain, against a bucolic scenery. The composition is rendered with dabs and dashes of colours articulating the contours of the man and suggesting his demeanour.
