Hand 91

So here I am at the 91st hand—it feels like I’m getting so close to my 100th! This one was done with a Micron pen, and I focused on the form, shading, and muscles in the palm. Even after 91 hands, I still find them a challenge, especially with pen since you can’t erase, but I’m proud of myself for using pen to improve my skills. I’m already thinking about what I’ll want to work on next after I finish 100 hands. I’ll keep my eyes on my hands for now!

I've discovered a website called petfinder.com which has a huge listing of pets (not just dogs) for sale, and have heard good things about them.  For now I'll just have to be content with "drawing" puppies :( I decided to add a poll to my blog this week to get a consensus of how "green" readers have been.  Let me know how green you've been and we'll see how everyone's been doing in a few weeks. Our community has begun a huge new recycling campaign this year where we can leave out recycling AND composting each week.  So far I think it's been a huge decrease in ...
