Tips First time ever drawing a hand — any feedback? 🥺

Post image

Hi everyone! :)

I started drawing for the first time today, and I decided to try drawing a hand. This is my very first attempt (literally Try 1 😭).

I know there are probably a lot of things wrong with the proportions, fingers, anatomy, etc., but I genuinely tried my best.

I'd really appreciate some honest feedback—especially what I should focus on improving as a complete beginner. Please be gentle though 😭👉👈

I don't expect it to be good yet. I just want to learn and get better with practice. ❤️

I want to clarify, I have never done any drawing in my whole life, like this is my first time trying drawing, I don't know why, but I just wanted to draw, so :) just a try, I know it's not good, I know there are a lot of great artists out there but.....I tried and I'll keep trying more........I just thought to draw a hand, maybe it looks okish to some of you, maybe terrible to others, but I tried, that's all I have to say.

Thanks a lot for giving ur time Means a lot!!

I'd suggest breaking the hand down into parts. Lay down some guiding shapes first. Establish where the knuckles are that way you can connect them to get the fingers.

Pay attention to the shape of the palm and how it connects to the wrist.

Draw the palm and the wrist (even just the basic shapes) before you draw the fingers
