1. What was it like using your hand as subject matter for a drawing?
It was okay using my hands as subject matter. I didn't realize how many lines were in my hands.
2. What media did you select - pencil or charcoal? Why?
I used charcoal, because I thought it would be easier to maneuver in my least dominant hand, and because I just wanted to try something new and feel the difference between the two.
3. How did it feel to create a drawing with your non-dominant hand?
The outline was hard, but after I got used to it, it wasn't so bad.
4. Compare and contrast your final drawings. Do you think they are successful studies?
In the dominant hand drawing the outline is definitely better but I think the lines of the hands were easier to draw using the least dominant hand. It could be because I knew what to expect but to me it was easier. It seemed less stressed and less controlled which made it easier and faster to manipulate the charcoal.
5. Would you consider using your non-dominant hand to create artwork in the future?
It would have to depend on what effect I was going for. If I wanted a less controlled piece of work I would say definitely. Outline I may still would use my dominant hand.
