Hands | Brynn Bowthorpe

1. Sweaty hands clenched in tight fists at a kickboxing class.

2. Hands leading a choir: waving, encouraging expression.

3. Two hands hold a kleenex to a stuffy nose.

4. Fingers around the top of the pen, thumb on the end click, click, clicking it nervously.

5. One hand beneath a pillow cradling the head, the other relaxed and motionless while napping on the couch.

6. Intertwined fingers reaching above the head to strech after the nap on the couch.

7. Skillfully spinning an apple between thumb and fingers, finishing lunch before class.

8. Moving mindlessly one finger at a time over the computer keys while writing an e-mail.

9. Clammy hands wringing and constantly moving by the grad student attempting to teach a communications class.

10. Smoothing soap over hands while washing for the upteenth time, trying to be rid of germs.

11. Chef's hands- hotly and quickly jumping, dancing on a fresh tortilla frying.

12. Fingers hold a spoon, thumb scrapes off something that the diswasher couldn't.

13. Frantically pounding numbers on a cell phone- "texting" the big news.

14. Teacher hands gesture, allowing you to speak.
