The Hands of Fate by gaius gracchus
[Revision: I added a detailed background.] This piece captures my interest in hands (as an art subject), surrealism, and vanitas. #painttheworld #surreal #surrealism #hands #handdrawn

looks really good, nice and surrealistic. what is the yellow part at the top of Earth?

Shiizuko, I always think my hands are horrible until I add values to them. My point: if you think yours look bad, don't erase them until you've added shades, etc. Sorry if I'm giving you unsolicited advice. Thank you for your encouraging words.

JJMAwaken, think of the Earth as a sort of tree ornament - that explains the yellow part (I hope). Thank you for your compliments.

Oh no, it's perfectly all right! Yeah, I guess I do have the tendency to erase something if it looks bad. I always want it to look right before I do any type of shading, lol.
