Hands are a fundamental part of the human body, with them we connect with people through a greeting or a caress, that is why this time I wanted to make a hand using pointillism as a protagonist, I present the result:

Materials
-Cardboard.
-Scissors.
-Paintings.
-Allen keys (to mark the points)
Process
I put my left hand on a white cardboad and drew the silhouette, then cut it with scissors.
I painted it mahogany brown
I began to mark the points starting from the wrist, in this photo the dots are seen as if they were a bracelet that adorns the hand.
In the central part of the hand I formed a circular pattern using different shades of paint and points of varying sizes.
When the paint is fresh, the points are usually deformed, like here, but it is a matter of being patient and waiting for it to dry.
Here you can see the symmetrical shape that the dots took when drying. I love creating these circular patterns that I think resemble flowers, and I like to use a lot of white because it gives light to the composition.
At the tips of the fingers I painted blue dots, and continued to expand the figure I was making in the central area
I surrounded with green dots the blue dots I had painted on the fingers of this peculiar hand.
With green aquamarine paint I filled in the small spaces that had been left free of paint, these points I made much smaller than the rest so that they stood out from the others and gave an attractive appearance to the hand.
To fill in the fingers I used large circle patterns surrounded by tiny dotted chains
Final result
To give it the final touch I finished filling the spaces using small aquamarine green dots. Performing this work took me a whole day but the result was satisfactory.
