added comment inFigure Drawing Critiques - Gesture
My examples of gesture drawing include those I did before the demo, following the demo, and after critique. There are some poses I like and others I don’t. I’m wondering if I should try 5- or 6-minute gesture sessions to take more time to analyze my mistakes, understand why my poses feel stiff, and work on improving line quality (since it currently looks messy), or if I should stick to 2- or 3-minute gesture sessions and rely on consistent practice to help me improve.

This is my additional example. After creating 4 pieces, I noticed that I always drew the brow too low and had issues with the angle of the eyes. I'll try to focus on these areas next time

When I followed the demo, the exercise seemed simple and fun, but creating my own shapes was much harder. I’m not completely satisfied with them. I guess I need more practice.

After watching the demo and critique, I finally understand what a "master study" means. I found some references my master likely used and created studies based on notes, trying to recreate six of his works. After this, I found my own references featuring the character my master drew (but in different poses/expressions, etc.), and at the end, I drew another character, trying to capture my master's style. I think I’ve managed to capture his line style but not the shapes yet, though I haven’t studied shapes yet, so I think that’s okay?
