Hands are a challenging subject. I have painted and drawn them countless times and still learning. It may surprise you to know that I was never taught how to draw hands, nor did I take an artistic anatomy course in school. Instead, I was taught to learn through careful looking, measuring and trial and error. I continue to grow and get better through work alone. I’m sorry to say, no tutorial can prepare you for the long hours required to really get good.
Art can be taught through a step by step technical process. However, the demonstration below is not a detailed tutorial on drawing the hands per se. It is a guide on how you might approach any subject. A window into my thought process while I draw.
Come join me, and good luck!
