Hands Blog

Right and Left hands, done with each opposite hands.  For the record I have always been a very bad drawer so I am sorry if these look bad for this project.

1. What was it like using your hand as subject matter for a drawing?
This was interesting because I never really looked at my hand as a subject, looking to see what lines I have on it and shapes and whatnot.

2. What media did you select - pencil or charcoal? Why?
I chose pencil because I knew It would be easier to draw with and if there was a mess up, it'd be easy to erase.

3. How did it feel to create a drawing with your non-dominant hand?
It was very tough, I felt like my left hand was useless in a way, because it wasn't going in any direction I wanted it to.

4. Compare and contrast your final drawings. Do you think they are successful studies?
I don't feel my drawings would be successful studies, mainly because I lack artistic ability of drawing, which isn't a bad thing its just I would rather so a study on someone who knew how to draw very well to begin with.

5. Would you consider using your non-dominant hand to create artwork in the future?
If I took some more time to learn how to draw with my dominant hand first, then yes I would take some time to see how my less dominant hand would hold up.
