How to Draw Hands
Hands can be the most challenging aspect of figure drawing, and their complexity can draw attention to them, whether well drawn or not. They are also important to the portrait artist, as full or three-quarter length portraits are popular, and even when using a photographic reference, understanding the structure is important to acheive accurate modeling. Try using this simple approach and tackle drawing hands with confidence.
