Drawings by Amsterdam-based artist Willehad Eilers aka Wayne Horse. Having started drawing at a young age and finding he’d become set in his ways, Eilers started posing different challenges for himself which resulted in a years-long exercise he refers to as ‘breaking the hand’:
“I started to draw with my left hand, to draw to speedmetal, draw nude while listening to classical music, draw blind, draw intoxicated, draw by the eye, draw with punches and draw from thought. I think the period of ‘breaking the hand’ lasted ruffly 7/8 years. Resulting in the hand I draw with these days. A visual language that is spontaneous and free. Expressive, imperfect lines that are drawn immediately, without prior sketching.”
