Wire Hand

To start with this hand, I did one “rough draft” by tracing my hand in wire and working with it from there to see what I needed to change. After the draft, I again traced my hand, this time making sure to really pay attention to every detail. Upon finishing my initial outline, I proceeded to add in joints, using smaller wire to attach them to the outline. From there it was only a matter of adding the lines of my hand to “flesh” it out and help with additional support. I have had the medicine balls that the hand is holding for many years and often use them when I’m feeling stressed out or upset. I find that the meditative motion of circling them in my hand allows me to slow down and breathe when I need it most.
