Escher’s Nightmare One hand doesn’t know what the other one is doing Pencil sketching artwork drawing of hand pencil rubber graphite charcoal Pencil on Chart paper

"Escher’s Nightmare"
Pencil on Chart

This drawing is based on a lithograph done by M. C. Escher in 1948 entitled "Hands Drawing Hands". Instead of the hands working as a team to create each other, my version depicts one hand attempting to destroy its creator. It is also a pictorial definition of the old adage: "One hand doesn’t know what the other one is doing."
And Here's the original picture that I used as reference draw.

A picture can really speak when it has the essence blended in it with pencil.Shading is such important in giving the reality of a particular piece.Identify the use of mild shades and dark tones.When the shades are perfect,a picture can really speak!

Behind a watery glass window - Pencil on PaperA4 - Drawing using rubber
Pencil on PaperA4.
The white strokes made using the fine edges of rubber helped me in bringing the effect of a watered glass window.
