Draw Two Hands making a Heart Tutorial

Below you’ll find an easy step-by-step tutorial for how to draw a Two Hands making a Heart. It’s a great way to create a message about diversity.

A drawing of two hands making a heart, made with the help of a step by step tutorial.

You could try to trace your hands to make this image, especially if you have some help, but that’s often harder (and more awkward) than one might expect.

Instead, try following this set-by-step tutorial to practice drawing a hand with the fingers slightly apart, and just the right amount of overlap to create a pretty heart shape in between. In the end, I think it’s easier, and a good way to improve hand drawing skills. After all, it’s all about noticing the details in how our fingers can bend and fold together.

If you have some students looking for a bit more challenge, try suggesting that they add fingernails in a way that looks natural for each finger. They have their own to refer to, if they need some help.
