I have drawn another 3 heads (the Horse, Rat and Monkey) from the Ai Wei Wei Zodiac Head series at the NGV. I was conscious of a lack of fluidity and freedom in some of my recent zodiac head drawings (the rabbit and snake especially), which I attributed to drawing from a fixed sitting position, and getting too uptight about the drawing. Today I executed quick sketches similar to the approach I use with my train drawings, and the results show a more relaxed and vibrant line. I am very happy with today’s results, achieved using the Nomad wearable easel.
