Oh me too. I just honestly hoard hand refs on pinterest and see
which one looks best with the pose.

But starting on doing some studies so hopefully my hands will greatly improve. :qh:

@Moi
yeah you can post here.

I tend to browse a lot of art to get an idea on how to do hands.
I drew a hand the other day that I didn't think was too bad 8u

I still am sick, but it's clear to me now that it is allergies.
But they don't seem to be going away because the weather refuses to make up its mind >Bu

It was nice yesterday.
Kinda cloudy and the breeze was cool and enjoyable.
But then the breeze went away and it was hot.

I know the first warm day we get, my dog is getting a bath 8u
He was lying down and I kept pointing at him and saying "Bath 8u/" and he kept slapping my hand away with his paw.

I try not to look at other artists and how they do hands
because a lot of the time, some of the hand movements they choose
are normally stylized. So I stick to non-art references.
And real-life references are just better to study from.

My brain also thinks very complicated things, so less stress if i study
from just refs and not art of hands. :mcheh:

Well, I look at real hands and at art.
I just like to see how other people draw their hands because I tend to want to draw realistic and that's not my goal.
I don't like adding too many details because that's not my goal.
I don't think mine are stylized. They're just bad. 8u
HOWEVER, they're better than they used to be.
They used to look like forks u8

@Moodybats - That's a good idea. I have not tried looking for hand references on pinterest.

@Moi - XD Your dog is like "nah, i'm good"... about that bath.

Fork hands. XD

[Hands]

There's some of my old art 8u


He talks shit back to me all the time >_>
He does this little growl/grumble and it sounds like he's talking under his breath.

I was talking to him about food and apples came up 8u

Me: Does he like...steak? 8u
Hyde: 8P -wags tail-
Me: Yeah? Does he like...pork chops? 8u
Hyde: 8P -wags tail-
Me: Yeah? Does he like...apples? 8u
Hyde: -does nothing-
Me: No, I guess not 8u

Pinterest is honestly my go to place for studies.
I even have 2 different boards for art.
One is all of my references of what I want to draw, what I want to practice, etc.
So I have subcategories like poses, clothing ideas, and landscapes to practice etc.

And my other board is just an inspiration board with inspiring photos and with 1 subcategory that is color palettes as I am no good at color theory yet. :mcheh:

My Pinterest is full of all kinds of crap I find interesting.
I use it to brows fashion and for art inspiration.
I also like looking at random knick-knacks and funny photos 8u

I think I found this Tumblr blog from Pinterest.
https://tumblr.tastefullyoffensive.com/
It's full of cute and funny stuff.
I have yet to understand what's offensive about it ._.

@Moi - Aww, those hands don't look that bad.

One of my cats likes to sigh and growl. She gets pretty sassy.

@MoodyBats - The only studies I've used pinterest is for clothes reference. I have a board for it. I might look into making more art reference boards.

I mainly use pinterest to find backgrounds for my phone. XD Speaking of which, I need to change my background, it has been a while.

I have also started to use it to find some recipes. I made a potato recipe I found from there and it came out pretty good.
