Hold Your Hand Still

Continuing with the theme of hands in my extremely inexpensive A3 sketchbook, I am mixing up the materials a bit. I pulled out a chinagraph pencil, and did some studies with that. I’m not huge on using erasers even if I’m using graphite, but I very much like things like chinagraph pencils, because all your choices are in the history of the drawing.

I put some Carmine Red acrylic on the gel plate with some white and mixed up a few values, and then painted the hand in the second image. It goes nicely with yesterday’s hand, so I’ve included that here.

Hands up who else had a fun, creative day..

Til the morn,

Suzanne
