This project offers simple step-by-step illustrated instructions, to guide aspiring artists through the process of outlining a proportionately correct adult human hand.

Preview lesson H02 - Proportions of a Hand

Yes this lesson helped with proportions.

OK. This one was a little hard for me. I immediately drew a second hand because I wasn't real thrilled with my first one, my second wasn't great either. Oh well, practice, practice, practice......

pretty good ive always had a problem with drawing hands i guess this could work

Did did pretty good on this lesson. Good lesson!

This was very helpful. I like the idea of the rectangle to set guidelines for the three fingers.

seems hard, but a person like me would not give up easily without practicing, so would try harder for this one.

OK, so I took forever to do this one, since I was completely bored with it, even though I cannot draw hands properly!

Anyhow, some discrepancies... I was checking my hand as I was drawing and I know Brenda said average hand but I saw some differences in mine that I couldn't ignore.
The joints do not necessarily cause curves at the edges of the fingers... sometimes it's a dent, sometimes a curve outwards at the top of the joint. It is an informative lesson, and I am no authority on art. Mine has some mistakes, for instance the ring finger is way too large, but it gave me lots of trouble to get the measurements right in the beginning. Sorry you can't see the joints but that is the light from the scanner.

1 hand down, 99 to go...

that helped a lot. Thank you:D

Loved this one and the previous lesson!

One of my dreams is to be able to draw people very well and to learn how to draw them in a correct way.

Thanks Brenda.
