Really nice! You're doing gesture drawings at a high level. I'm trying to think of ways to help you further. Maybe watching Mike Mattesi's force drawing series could give you new insights https://www.proko.com/lesson/improving-line-quality-and-rhythm-force-series-part-1/discussions Hope this helps :)

Really good! - 3rd image, bottom right corner: Instead of drawing two lines for the left side of her torso, I would draw one of them on the right. That way the energy of the pose is being pushed from side to side. I've recently rediscovered my love for this after studying "Bridgman's Life Drawing" for a personal project. He has a chapter in there called RYTHM, and it looks like it's all about meeting a curve with an opposing curve, to push the energy through the pose. Mike Mattesi is big on this concept too, which is why I linked his video in the reply to your other post. Hope this helps :) Keep up the good work!

Hi @Bas de Vries, great job! I think you completed the exercise succesfully! - I attached a paintover with suggestions on where you could have connected even more (and in the bottom right is a general gesture note). How much you connect or divide is up to you, you don't HAVE to go overboard with it, but I wanted to make you aware of the possibilites. Hope this helps :) Keep up the good work!

Hi @Bas de Vries, I think these are very successful! Great gesture and beautiful to look at! I'll see if there's anything I can do to help you further: - I would try to connect things more with longer lines. You seem to be breaking up what could have been long gesture lines, into shorter strokes, with gaps inbetween. Whenever I get the change I try to connect things, because it forces me to analyze how the big picture works. Breaking up the lines is not necessarily wrong (it could make a cool style!) but it might hurt your understanding. You might unintentionally break up lines, because you're unsure of how the big picture works. Maybe you're just copying certain parts of the contour My favorite exercise for practicing finding the big picture is to do 30s drawings where I limit myself to 5 (or fewer) lines (CSI) + head. It´s a challange, but using only 5 lines will force you to find the core gesture. You can look at my paintover of another students work for inspiration. Note that I´m not drawing stick figures, but the flow passing through the forms - As a rule of thumb try to ignore stuff that doesn't do much for the gesture. Try to think big to small or important to detail: When you have time over to add another line, try to seek the line that would add the most to the pose. I hope this helps :) Keep up the good work!
