Gesture Drawing Class Work (anyone want to post their work with me?)
-
Here’s my collection of my best gesture drawings from throughout the course. Wow, there’s so much to learn by viewing everyone else’s work. Thank you everyone for sharing.

@tombrinck Very nice! I see you did a lot of contour drawing. And your variations have a lot of personality! I recognize some of those poses!
@TessaW I like your takes on the subject matter, as usual!

Here is the last practice exercise from Lesson 6, the one with two figures:
-
Back with double figures assignment. This time I tried very hard to loosen up! I selected a blottier brush and went to some old family photos to get more small children in the mix. I also went to the last reference resource, a collection of county fair photos with an amazing variety of humanity!
The results are mixed. I actually found the county fair photos so fascinating that I didn't want to vary from them. I may have had a bit more story success with the same couple of models that we have been working from all along. But I enjoyed getting some children in too, and since I want to do children's books, felt it was a good opportunity to practice a bit without getting too perfectionistic.
On to the last lesson!
