Today I have only been able to draw for an hour. I have started to draw the inside edge of the plate which consists of hundreds, probably thousands of diamonds in ordered lines. Counting them hurts my eyes. I have drawn four lines, about 160 diamonds, I notice there are eight sections of about 400 diamonds. I will not draw all the diamond sections at once but intersperse them throughout the drawing or I will become thoroughly demoralised ! I will finish this section and then begin on some leaves from the trees. I have decided everything will be deconstructed so as not to look like the actual objects, houses, boats, paths, trees, birds etc that the sum of the Willow Pattern represents.
