This page presents samples of drawings of hands submitted by successful applicants to our program.

We request drawings and paintings of hands because they give us an idea of an applicant's ability to perceive functional structure, proportion and light on forms. Asking all applicants to submit images of hands better allows us to qualitatively and objectively compare and contrast between applicants' portfolios. Rendering of fine detail is of secondary concern. Images must be drawn from direct observation of a live model and without the use of photography. The drawings may be either in continuous-tone black and white or in color. Hands should be drawn approximately life size, and may be shown in repose or in action. An applicant's portfolio must include four drawings of hands.

All images are copyrighted by the respective artist. All rights reserved.
