How to Draw a Hand Lets get started!
Step 1
In this tutorial, we will be drawing the open palm of a left hand.
Starting at the middle bottom of your paper, draw the outline of the palm.
ensure that you draw the outline of the palm on the bottom vertical line.
Starting at the bottom of your paper provides sufficient space for you to draw the fingers.
Bear in mind that the outlines should be slightly apart from each other and not overlapping.
We will be able to connect all of them once we go over and trace the outlines.
This outlines the index finger.
The length of the index fingers outline must be as long as how your hands index finger would be.
Needless to say, you’re free to customize the length and width of every finger.
The middle finger must be relatively bigger than the index finger, as how it naturally is.
Draw an outline of the ring finger right beside the middle finger.
The ring finger must be slightly smaller than both the index finger and the middle finger.
When youre in doubt, check your own hands to determine if the sizes of the fingers are accurate.
The distance between the lines should be how thick or thin you want the wrist to be.
Draw curves whenever necessary, but keep your lines straight especially on the fingers.
This finally forms and structures the hand.
As you might see in the illustration, the hand is gradually coming to life!
Afterwards, draw a sideways curved line facing towards the thumb.
This will create an outline for the palm lines, making the hand appear dimensional and realistic.
