×
Nandalal preferred drawing from life, often sketching outdoors with the subject being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings and animals. The above study sketch by the artist is of ferocious looking beings, rendered with repetitive, continuous pencil strokes. The lines are fluid yet firm suggesting the basic contours of the face and the demeanor of the subjects.
