Drawing: HANDS!

We are going to be drawing HANDS this week.  Have you been washing them more than ever, lately?  Aren’t we so thankful that the Lord is in control of even the germs on our hands? What peace we have in Christ to cast all our cares on Him (1 Pet 5:7).  Hands are difficult to draw, yet fun to master!
Let’s Go!
Project Overview: You will study the anatomy of hands from the attached video, create practice thumbnail sketches as you study them, and then create a final drawing in the pose of your choice.
This week:  Watch this video tutorial. This is from a computer graphics designer, but so many of his principles can be applied to 2-D drawing as well.  Draw along in small sketches in your sketchbook page. Create some thumbnails of different poses and select your choice by circling and then send me the photo for the approval.
Day 1:  Follow along and practice drawing while watching the video Anatomy Quick Tips Hands video link.  Draw thumbnail sketch sizes so you can follow along more quickly.
Day 2:  Looking at your thumbnail sketches from Day 1. Choose which pose you want to do.  Looking at your own hand as reference, draw a thumbnail sketch of that pose.
Next week:  Drawing from your approved hand thumbnail sketch, make a larger final version this week.

Day 1:  Looking carefully at your own hand, draw the contours carefully and lightly.
Day 2:  Add some shading to your hand and erase all construction lines
