I seem to be on a theme of hands (there are always a couple available to draw). These two prints are both derived from drawings of my own hands, which were interesting challenges! For the first one, I posed my left hand against a mirror. The second, ‘Sanctuary’, was more of a memory test as, clearly, I could not keep the pose and draw at the same time. (Only after taking the prints did I notice a mistake in the anatomy of one of the palms. Hopefully it’s not too obvious or distracting!) They are shown hanging on the drying rack at the Marketplace Print Studio in Cockermouth.
