Almost at the end of the life drawing session at Swansea Print Workshop and I spent the last few minutes drawing the model’s hand. There was some quite severe foreshortening and it was hard. Very hard. OOOOOFFFF!!!! No matter how many times I measured up, they still look weird.
I drew with a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet using a free Markers app. I worked onto a black ground that I put in first.
I think it is hard because we have pre-conceived ideas about what hands loo like. And it is weird.
Who cares for perfect, really. Sometimes expression is now important…
….and livelier 😀
Indeed
I love what you did here
Thank you, Sheldon 🙂
Even if you missed your personal standard of exactly right proportions, you did a wonderful sketch, very expressive of the presence of a strong human hand. Right on.
Thank you, Carol ☺
