Ice cream cone

I considered calling this one “Hands are hard”…

Line and wash sketch. A hand that isn't following the right propotions holding an ice cream cone made of a waffle cone. The ice cream ball is pink. .

Did this one based on an old photo I had of a waffle cone ice cream cone. Then added a hand holding the cone. Hands are hard - and this one is all out of proportions.

Still, I’m happy with this.

Done in Hahnemühle A5 landscape watercolor sketchbook.
