        Hand and foot from life, this time I tried to do something live, 3 days ago the sheet with my hand the hand,
        yesterday the foot (on the big toe there was a gauze that I tried to draw) and the relative leg,
        and then another hand, always the left hand.
        I used pencil 2b, sheets a3, I didn’t time it,
        maybe the first 40 minutes?
        the other 2, perhaps the first one hour, and the second hand less, but I don’t know, also because I tried to delete something, to return to a line maybe even more.

        second photo sheet held horizontally and photographed in full. So I tried to draw as big as I could.
        It was not always good for me to hold positions at certain times, so I could have changed the position or look a little.

        Thanks for seeing them. :wave:

        Joe I wouldn’t worry about how much time it takes, it’s a good way to practice… another way would be to use a mirror… it’s a little easier to see the hands and feet from perspective.

        Well done Joe. That first hand is excellent. Definitely the best work i’ve seen from you :)

            Bethany, Mac, David, thank you all, thank you so much for your words, they made me very happy.
            Mac, ok for the time,
            for the mirror, thanks to the suggestion some time ago I had taken a small one, those portable mirrors, taken however thinking precisely of the design, but then I had used it little, about 20 x 10 cmq, however, with fold out sides and fold down stand.
            I’ll try again. At least for the hand and to try again to draw it, in the new attempts I can perhaps taking advantage of greater comfort then also hold a pen or coin.

                The hand is a good effort Joe.

                    Thank you so much .
                    PS:
                    Happy August (good mid-August) to all! (although I believe that in some countries it could fall back to another date or not be such recurrence, in this case happy summer where in fact it is summer :) )
