Exploring Line









1. What was it like using your hand as subject matter for a drawing?

It was interesting using my hand as a subject matter. I do not think I have ever really noticed how mank lines and wrinkles are on my finger until now! 


2. What media did you select - pencil or charcoal? Why?

I chose pencil pretty much just because I prefer it over charcoal. Sometimes charcoal is too messy and I just got my nails done, so I opted out of that. 


3. How did it feel to create a drawing with your non-dominant hand?

Drawing with my non-dominant hand is really hard. I could not pick up the pencil off the paper in time, my straight lines are wicked crooked and zig-zag like, and it is really just awkward. 


4. Compare and contrast your final drawings. Do you think they are successful studies?

I think the one I drew with my dominant hand is pretty accurate. It definitely has better lines, better shadows and better detail. The one with my non-dominant hand is pretty horrendous.  


5. Would you consider using your non-dominant hand to create artwork in the future?

NOPE!
