5 Hand Rhythms Every Sculptor Should Know

Understanding the rhythms and gestures of the hand is crucial for creating natural and dynamic hand sculptures. Focus on five key rhythms: the knuckles’ arcs, the palm’s curve, the fingers’ inward curve, the side view of fingers and thumb, and the middle-pinky-thumb method. These rhythms help you capture the fluidity and structure of the hand, making your sculptures more lifelike and expressive.
