Thanks Daniel

i had tried a first-stage reduction of it in the vain hope it may help
with the difficulty i have drawing the hands of small figures but alas
it already starts to lose definition as can be seen

                    _     _-'
                  _/ `-_-' _-'
                _/  \  \_-'
              _/  \  Y_-"\
             /  \  Y_/(_-'
           _-'\  Y_/   /
         -' _-'`-' ._-'
         _-'/`-__-'/
           /`      |
          /`._  _.-|
          |        |
          |`-_  _-'|

which made me consider copying/emulating Joris Bellenger's stylistic
way of drawing small hands as shown here
