About This Piece

Hand Studies by Paul Cadorette shows three outstretched hands in dusty rose against a muted grey ground, set side by side almost like panels of a triptych. Each hand reaches and gestures differently, so the painting reads like a small study in expression and movement. Hands are one of the hardest things for any artist to paint, and this quiet 1930s study turns that practice into something graceful and a little mysterious.

The dusty rose and soft grey palette is muted and sophisticated, ideal for a bedroom, dressing room, studio, or office. It pairs well with blush, grey, or warm white walls and with other figure studies and drawings.

About the Artist

Paul Cadorette was an American illustrator who worked during the 1930s and 1940s as part of the Federal Theatre Project, the New Deal program that employed artists, designers, and theater workers during the Depression. His surviving work is primarily costume and set design illustration. Precise, inventive, and built to serve production. He worked in the space where commercial craft and fine art illustration overlap, and the drawings hold up entirely on their own terms.
