Emily's+Zentangled+Hands



Before we started to learn how to draw hands, I had no idea how to even START them! I just used to trace my own hand. Now. I obviously have learned how to draw them, and can do it without tracing my own hand. I improved so much I think. The hand above, is my before. The first one I ever drew without tracing my own hand. The hand above, I traced a little bit and you're not aloud to. I really think that I have improved, a lot. I think I improved just by having Mrs. Ruggles teach us how to truly draw hands. I also looked at many many examples online!

I did have problems. I kept on practicing on scrap paper before I started to use the good paper. I could not draw the letter m. That one was the hardest to me. It took at least 3 or 4 different tries before I could get a decent looking one. I solved my problems just by practicing over and over again and tracing helped too. I also had a small problem with zentangling. I have never heard of zentangling before I took art this semester. I actually like it a lot more than I thought I would. It's basically just fancy doodling. It doesn't even really have to be fancy, the doodles I made aren't all fancy.

I am very proud of my piece of art now that I am done with my project. It is defiantly something I am proud of. It's something that I am going to keep forever. I am going ot try and find a frame that will fit my project in it, so that I can hang it up in my room, since it spells out my name! Even though the year is coming to an end, I am going to continue to draw hands over the summer and make more, fun projects of my own!
