BEGINNING OUTLINE
The hand starts as almost a square. Roughly place the staff as two long lines that go through the square, so the fingers will be wider at the front.  The wrist is narrower than the hand, and the thumb edge of the hand slopes upward. The fingers are curved around the staff, so the back knuckles from the outside edge; draw this as a curving line that will go past the staff's edge. Use a second curving line to mark off the tips of the fingers.  You will be erasing these guidelines later.

DETAILS
The thumb is higher than the first finger. The first finger curves around a little. The fingers are not straight but bent a little where the knuckles are. There are wrinkles around the wrist and the back edge of the hand. There are wrinkles across the wrist, on the palm of the hand, and across the thumb muscle. Add the fingernails, and remember there is some finger on each side of the fingernail.

Use shadow to give the hand roundness.

Draw the staff with a lot of lines for the wood grain.

There are two shadow lines down the wrist for the tendons.
