12. Draw a map of your hand, palm and knuckle. I think everyone must have at one stage in their life made their mark with their hand. Long ago I used mine for the illustration 'When Does' . After coating my hand in gouache and printing it, reducing the best copy I then made a gocco screen. I have had a small rubber stamp made from a hand print too. Hands are amazing and mine need more respect from me. I did map the lines on my palm and knuckle, and have included in the photo the small rubber stamp.
