Description One of the things I find frustrating as an artist is trying to draw my right hand. I can't just drop my pencil, pose my hand, memorize how it looked, draw it, drop the pencil again, ETC. ETC. ETC! It's SO annoying! So I dragged my sister downstairs and told her that she was going to be a hand modal, as I forced her to hold her hand in the air for an extended period of time (which, I'll have you know, wasn't that long, though I'm sure she'll tell you it took forever). Some of the fingertips got a bit cut off while I was collaging them together, but I'm seriously lacking in the computer skills. Anything beyond selecting a few pictures in Picasa and clicking "collage", and I'm lost for hours.

UPDATE - Thank you so much to everyone who has posted such nice compliments! I posted this because it was what I, as an artist, wanted, and apparently so do you! I have limited time (as seen by my severe lack of updates) but if there is something simple that would be helpful, let me know! I'll see what I can do....

You saved my drawing yay! Hands are the worst! I can never draw the right angle and looks deformed.

Sorry. I see now that the hands are not a stock picture. I hope that I was able to take the picture anyway. Many thanks! :hug;:

Thank you so much! My sketchbook assignment for art class was to draw a hand holding something, and I was having so much trouble getting an adequeate reference without dropping my pencil every ten seconds. Not to mention it's net to impossible to twist my hand around so I can see the angle I want xD SO anyway, thanks!

Thank you for posting this reference; I used them for a hand-drawing assignment. I will be posting the drawing that used your reference and of course will give you credit, but if you are not okay with that please let me know, and I will take the drawing down. Thanks again, great images!

What I'm seriously needing is a pair of hands holding the reins of a horse. But I currently don't know of anyone who could give me this pose, as I don't know of anyone who owns a horse.

Thank you so much for posting this! You have totally saved my current work in progress!

I, too, have a problem when it comes to drawing the right hand, so this picture was a godsend. It has so many common and useful poses!

You...Are seriously my best friend right now. I've been dying to try to find good hand references, but they were never in the pose I wanted. You just saved me big time! Thank you for making this.

Very good! What I do for drawing hands, is that I draw my left hand, because I'm right-handed. But it's always frustrating when it comes to the right hand... :C
