Description Black Ball Point Pen 0.05mm + Light blue Color Pencil |Paper 165 gsm | 16x23 cm

There should have been a light blue sky as a background but my scanner didn't think it was necessary.
Have to find a better scanning device soon.

Obviously inspired from the work of Lebbeus Woods,
perhaps a little too much!

I am not really happy with the title by the way, any better ideas?


Feedback is much appreciated.

Glad to hear! You got the "thumb" part right I guess, I mean that's how I perceive it myself.  I wanted to achieve a dynamic feel so it's nice to hear that it gave you that feeling, some could say that it seems a little static in some parts. Thanks for the comment.

On my screen If I duck down I can see a bit of blue in the sky ^^ I think this deserves a comment, because you want feedback and people seem to have a bad habit of favoriting work and not saying why these days.
Anyways, when I look at this piece, it doesn't scream "I'm a hand!!!" at me, but I like it anyway ^^ I love the way the top two panels are done, the effect you've managed to get I think is really quite impressive Now the bottom panel, I'm really tired so the part of my brain that usually makes thing make sense isn't working that great, but I really like the bottom panel too. I can see a thumb, but it kinda confuses me, but it still looks cool. Good lob ^^ 

(Sorry I'm bad at giving feedback when I'm tired, I just thought you deserve some )

Well yeah I have got to get a better scan of this piece, the sky will help connect the separate frames. The truth is that I wasn't trying to create a hand at first. I had the general concept in mind and started creating abstract shapes in favor of the composition. Gradually it gave me the impression of a giant hand coming down from the sky. So yeah, I get why someone can be confused a bit.
Thanks for sharing your thought, I really appreciate it .
