Hands 12/13/10

This is part of an ongoing project that I keep expanding upon. Someone once told me about how a person's hands tell as much about them as their clothes or the expressions on their faces. They show what type of life a person leads, whether or not they are married, if they are old or young. I'm working on a specific type of abstract portraiture that tells the story of a person or a family through their hands only. The below images are a couple I took while playing with some lighting and a black background. Stay tuned for more and as always comments or questions are welcome. Enjoy.
