Art Making/Material Exploration Drawings - Exploring Line

1. It was interesting using my hand as a subject matter because I began to analyze parts of my hand that I normally pay attention to..

2. I chose a pencil due to the fact that was the only tool I had at my disposal. I think the pencil would be better than charcoal because of all the miniature details on a hand.

3. It was hard using my hand as a subject matter due to the fact that I simply needed it to draw. My method was to just to stare at a finger long enough and try to memorize it as I was drawing.

4. I don’t think my drawings are successful due to the fact that they are lacking some similarities with my actual hands.

5. I wouldn't consider using my non-dominate hand unless I was probably making some type of abstract art. The hand tended to swerve a lot and made it difficult to make borders and introspective details.
