Here are my attempt for this assignment. Starting out with gesture really helped. Some angles of the hand was pretty tough. What do you guys think?

Hand gestures, 5 minutes per photo reference. Some came out to my liking but there are quite a few where I think some of the fingers end up too skinny/awkward looking and I feel I spend a bit too much time just getting the basic gesture in and having to rush the rest of the drawing.

I've decided I like mittens for hands hahah. Need a lot more practice

Tried to keep a light touch without sacrificing energy. Had a lot of fun with these studies!

This is just one page of 5min gestures - only the most simple were from imagination - the rest I used my own hand as reference. I'm going to continue with these, I enjoy them a lot, and definitely picked up some great tips!

A bit mixed up with sketches from other lessons. Filling in every empty space on the page.

Very cool pages 👍

My first try at the assignment today. Man that was not easy. My brain was working hard while i was drawing these hands. Perspective was an issue as well as thumbs. Hand holding objects are also very difficult to pull off but hey, at least they do look like hands.
@dizzlebird
Here's the second try at 5 minutes hands. It is fun but also frustrating in parts because I can't get the flow and proportions right.
Antonia Kowalewski
Really fun painting from refs, but still, as soon as there is no reference, it gets much much harder :)
Patrick Bosworth
These are great! Wonderful balance of straights and curves, really beautiful gestures, shape design, and simplification throughout. Keep up the good work!!

Here are a few hands for this assignment. I need more confidence in my lines but I think my gesture has improved from where I was at with hands prior to this lesson. I didn't have much mileage with hands prior to this so for 5mins studies I don't think these turned out too bad all things considered. Feel free to critique away!
Melanie Scearce
Nice hands! It looks like you found a good flow. I like the shapes in your second set of hands. The fingers feel a bit long on the hands that are outstretched. When you're working so gesturally, it's easy for the proportions to get away from you, so just make a note for your next session. Not a huge deal for this kind of sketching. Thanks for sharing :)

Well, I clearly need much more practice, but at least I feel like I am improving. I have no idea what happened to that last hand, though. 😅 Feel free to critique

I think these hands are nice (and the shading is cool too) I think your fingers are too short and the palms get too big. Find the proportions of palm and length of fingers. Keep practicing!
Alexander Artman
Was always anxious on drawing hands and this helped on giving me a good foundation to try to overcome my fear of drawing them. I found myself practicing more on these so I build some muscle memory. It’s not easy but I’m having fun
Melanie Scearce
Exposure therapy! Keep up the studies :)

Went back to studying hands this past week. Doing this assignment again to continue to improve. 🤟🏻

My first few hand drawings for the assignment. I spent 5 minutes (roughly) on the majority of them and did 24 of them equalling to 2 hours of drawing hands. I really enjoyed this assignment and found drawing hands not as difficult as I thought. I did do a hand drawing at 20 minutes which is my favourite and one at 10 minutes that I thought was also pretty good
