This week we focused mainly on the structure of the hands. The most helpful thing that I learned was how to break the hand into geometric figures. I started my drawings by first drawing the hand in the most general shape possible. from there i find the different planes of the fingers and palm. If i were to draw the hand in skeletal form I wouldn't create the figure with shapes, i would use lines only. With the lines it is easy to build the bones around that base. the most difficult problems I ran into was figuring how big the bones are in the finger. The hand is the most intimidating form of the human body but still most interesting to me. I hope to further my skills by being able to draw the hand at a gesture speed.
