Keeping yor hands warm while drawing

~TranneL Nov 17, 2012 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I've lately had a problem with drawing/painting outside because my hands always get cold,
but i really like doing nature sketches (they help me doing more detailed drawings/paintings of places more than anything else), so I wanted to ask how you keep your hands warm during the colder seasons? I suppose gloves aren't the best solution?

get yourself a small electric heater also on top of fingerless gloves as others mentioned.

Fingerless gloved. And doing stretches regularly, as it helps to keep your blood flowing

I have a pair of cheap gloves I cut off the tips from, they help somewhat but it's still rather cold

Gloves, if they don't bother you to much.

Otherwise, get some cayenne pepper, put a little bit in some lotion and rub it on. It will increase circulation and warm your hands up.
