How to Draw a Hand
Lots of people have trouble drawing hands, but it isn't too complicated once you know what to do. Drawing a realistic hand can mean either getting the proportions correct through measurement, or by using 3-dimensional shapes.
Steps

Measurements in Drawing a Hand

Study and learn the measurements of the hand and its parts.

The hand is about the same length as the face from chin to forehead.

Start by sketching a rounded square.

Sketch a triangle for the base of the thumb and the wireframe for the fingers.

Sketch rectangles for each finger segment and spheres for joints to build the hand shape

Draw the outline using the sketch as a guide.

Erase and remove the sketch marks and add color.

Drawing Using Basic 3-Dimensional Shapes

Sketch a box to serve as the main shape of the palm and add a wedge on one side to serve as the base for the thumb.

Sketch a circle for each finger that will connect to the palm.

Sketch cylinders and spheres to build the shape of each finger.

Sketch the shape of the hand using the basic shapes as a guide.

Draw the outline over the sketch to finalize the drawing.

Erase and remove the sketch marks.

Add color. To become a good artist, you need to see things with an artist's eye. Find a teacher who can help you observe things and draw better. Do plenty of sketches to gain practice.
