Hand Outline Instructions

Step #1: Drawing An Outline Of Your Hand Using A Pencil

Take a plain, white sheet of paper and draw a circle on it. Cut out the circle using a pair of scissors. Put your hand on the paper and draw its outline using a pencil.

Step #2: Tracing The Pencil Outline And Make Some Bushes Around The Fingers

Now, trace the pencil outline of the hand with a black sketch pen or a marker. After that, make a bush around each finger.

Step #3: Tracing The Bushed You Made In The Previous Step

Do the same, that is, trace the bushes you made in the previous step with the black sketch pen or marker. After the tracing, erase the pencil with a light hand.

Step #4: Taking A Brown Sketch Pen Or Marker And Color The Fingers

Now, grab a brown colored sketch pen or a marker and color the hand. The fingers will form the branches and the area around the wrist will form the trunk of the tree. Make sure you color it carefully as with sketch pens or markers, even a single layer more, whether intentionally or by mistake, that color shade changes to a darker one. So, is you wish to keep the same color throughout, try to not layer the color.

Step #5: Continuing To Finish Coloring The Hand

This step is a continuation to the previous one. So, keep coloring the hand aka, the branches and the truck using the same brown sketch pen or marker.

Step #6: Filling The Color In The Bushes

After the brown, comes the green. So, get a light green colored sketch pen or a marker. Using that, color the leafy part of the tree.

Step #7: Keep Coloring The Greens

This step is a continuation to the previous one. So, keep coloring the leafy part of the tree. You can also give different branches, a different shade of green as per your choice.

Step #8: Now, Get The Googly Eyes And Paste Them On The Bark

Get a pair of googly eyes and glue. Now paste the googly eyes using the glue in the palm of the hand impression, that is the bark of the tree.

Step #9: Making The Lips Of The Tree

This is the last and the final step of the activity. Get a dark green colored sketch pen or marker. Using it, make tiny, little dots all over the greens. After you are done with that, grab a white colored pen. With that, make the lips of the tree. Take the assistance of the reference image presented above. It will guide and help you. Draw with the help of that.
