The Hitote Project

Welcome to the Hitote Project. This is an art project cooked up to unite artists under one common element: Hands.

I feel that the hand is one of the most defining characteristics of an artist's style. My aim on this site is to gather entries from as many artists as possible depicting one single hand, however they want, in whatever medium they want, in their style.

We get our name from the Japanese word "hitote" meaning "one hand" or "one's own effort" implying a multitude of things but specifically the hand we draw with, the hand in the image, and how an artist relies on their own efforts to achieve their goals.

I see much excitement down the road for us. Stay Tuned!

M!
