YOU MAY PRINT THE ART LESSON NOTES BELOW.

BEGINNING
Start out by drawing lightly at first so you can erase later.
Use basic shapes to work out the design. The finger is like a long rectangle.
The wrist is like a long rectangle.
The fingers are grouped into a triangle.
The palm is almost a square.
The pointing finger is as long as the palm, but part of the palm is hidden by the other fingers, so it looks shorter than it really is.

DEVELOPING
Use two lines to define the fingers.
After the basic form is developed, draw around them to get the rough beginnings of the hand.
Erase the extra lines and begin to add detail.
Add roundness to the fingertips.

Add details like wrinkles at the joints and fingernails.

SHADING
Put shadows around the palm fingers and under the thumb. Add shadows under the wrist and forearm.

I hope you create a masterpiece!
