Hand Drawing Number Four

Hand drawing number four

This was actually the second I drew today, the first one ending up in small pieces in the bin. Ireally must stop doing that.

In order to avoid all these hand drawings being from the same viewpoint, I drew this one in themirror, with my hand relaxed and my wrist resting on my knee. Something about the wrist doesn’t quiteconvince me, but overall I’m quite happy with this one.

Although its a fairly simple drawing, I think it has more life than the previous three.

Twenty drawings of hands
