blog following for feb. 1-feb.8




Hand Design Anyone?

These photos appeared on the blog that I follow under the headline "Can you Believe the Patience." No, no I cannot. I actually think the guy paints his own hands and then photographs them. Crazy. I can barely design on a computer with two, let alone on my own hand with one. Quite impressive.

One thing that really struck me about these animals though is the artist's impeccable use of colour. After attempting to draw a human face (after Christine's glorious example), I realize that I have to work on being able to create/identify the appropriate colours when attempting to create a somewhat realistic depiction. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can learn?

Can you blog the handartist? May as well get true color advice from the horse's mouth (oops hand)?
