Animate a drawing on your hand. Draw an X on your palm with a permanent
marker, and then astonish your audiences as that very same X crawls
across your hand as though it were alive. Bring your ink to life with
Hand Drawn by Nick Popa.
Here’s what happens:
The performer removes a permanent marker from their pocket. They draw a
dot, an X, or even a heart on the palm of their hand. The drawing then,
slowly and visually, crawls across the performer’s palm. There is no
cover and no funny movements. The performer then plucks the drawing off
their hand and transfers it to their arm or their wrist. The audience
can even check to make sure that the ink is actually drawn onto the
performer’s skin.
This incredible effect happens with no cover, no special chemicals, and
no difficult sleight of hand. The Hand Drawn gimmick comes with three
standard shapes that you can animate on your hand. Nick even teaches you
a bonus handling to combine Hand Drawn with the popular Double Cross
Gimmick so that after the drawing animates on your hand, you can vanish
the drawing and make it appear on your spectator’s palm. Once you’ve
completed the one-time setup, you’ll be able to perform Hand Drawn any
time you want. This is one of the most visual moving ink effects you can
perform on your own skin. Have your art go for a stroll across the palm
of your hand with Hand Drawn by Nick Popa.
