YOU MAY PRINT THE PROJECT NOTES BELOW.


BASIC SHAPE
From the side view, the hand is like a long triangle, with a shorter triangle for the thumb.
Draw a rough outline using the basic triangle shapes of the hand and thumb- draw lightly so you can erase later.

UNDERSTAND THE HAND
Inside the rough outline of the hand, draw circles for the joints and knuckles and use lines as if they were the bones inside the hand. This helps to make the hand look real. Draw lightly; you will be erasing this later.

FILL THE AREAS
Between the joints draw large ovals for the muscles of the fingers and the thumb.

OUTLINE THE DETAILS
Outline around the ovals and circles. Draw one finger in front of the others by drawing the tip of another past it and drawing a line below the near finger for the one behind.

SHADING
Use shadows to show the roundness of the hand and fingers. Erase any extra lines last.

I hope you have fun with this lesson.
