30 Days of Gestures! Days 21-22

About 8 more days left. Not completely sure I've improved at the gestures so much, but in comparison to day 1, I feel a lot more comfortable within a smaller time frame figuring out the line of motion for each gesture, and my lines do seem a little more confident, with a lot less of the shaky lines while trying to draw the contour correctly. I already know, that after these 30 days are up, there's still going to be a lot more to practice.

Gesture Drawings - Day 7

Image
Day seven of drawing gestures! I know the pictures aren't too great of quality, for today I wanted to complete them in a more traditional style, rather than digital drawings. I had to take a picture of them, as the pages were waay to big for my scanner. Many more days to go, sometimes I really do wonder if these gestures will help improve my figure drawing, and develop my drawing skills to a newer level. Only time and continued practice will tell.

30 Days of 30 Second Gestures Day 3

Almost forgot to post day 3's gestures! :p I've been learning some interesting methods from veteran artist, Glenn Vilppu. I've learned that there's lot more to the gesture that just racing to get them done. There's a very important way of seeing the model and getting that "feeling" rather than trying to just copy what I see.

30 Days of 30 Second Gestures!

I know it looks quite messy!! However, I'm going to try and achieve 30 days of drawing gestures for some extra practice. I hope it won't be like the last 30 day challenge with the characters that I  did not complete and I still feel a bit sour about that. So hopefully, I will complete this, and come out much more a refined and more fluid artist. The purpose of these gestures is to really loosen up my drawing lines and the poses for the body, the body's movement will look more fluid and less rigid and stiff, which tends to happen when you focus on making one drawing look pretty for 8 hours. So instead, I'm going to focus on getting that fluidity and "feeling" behind the pose, before doing a drawing for 8 hours, and then finding out later on that it looks very stiff and lifeless.
