Almost everything out there is made up of such basic shapes which can make our drawing process easier. Drawing a hand is no different.
There are some basic shapes that make up our hand and we are going to list them down below courtesy of the picture from virtualinstructor.com.
First, look at your hands; you can understand that a square makes up the back portion of your palm. Similarly, a triangle is formed where the palm meets the thumb. These shapes might differ based on perspectives, but they will still be there.
Lastly, the fingers are basically cylinders as you can see from the picture. They may become taper and larger based on the finger but the basic shape is cylinder after all.
