Weekly Drawing Challenge: Hands

It’s been a while since I’ve done the Weekly Drawing Challenge. I missed last week’s, for example, which was “Blue”, but in case any of you felt cheated, here you go:

There are some drawing challenges that even I can’t mess up.

I’m not doing the Photo Challenge, but I am posting this one photo, which is relevant in as much as there are hands in the picture:

Janie is in the Irish Times.

For my drawing I have a real-life model to, well, hand. I have placed my left hand on the sketchbook, it is stone-still, as any good model should be, and is also naked, again as any good model should be.

    Strangely I can draw with my right hand almost as well as with my left. (I am left handed) Neither is a good drawing hand though. Never tried with my feet though….

    While naturally I’m impressed by your hand-i-work, I am totally tickled pink to be in the Irish Times. I also happen to like the combination of headlines, “Former FG Councillor Guilty of Corruption… 10 Reasons to Be A Feminist.”
