It was using my own hands as subject matter for this project. It was challenging to define the detail of my hands and bring a three dimensional aspect to my drawing. I started by using my charcoal pencils, although i felt as if they were too dark, even though i purchased a light, medium, and dark. I ultimately used a mechanical pencil to complete the project, which seemed to be most successful. It was easy to draw the first hand with my dominant hand. When it was time to draw my dominant hand, it was definitely challenging. I erased and started over a few times, as well as erasing marks throughout the whole process of drawing my dominant hand. I believe my drawing is successful and was a great learning experiment. When i look at the example the professor provided, my own drawing does not seem as three dimensional, but there are some great qualities in my work! I will not consider using my non dominant hand in the future on art projects, unless I am using both of my hands together!
