This is my first ever drawing course, started two weeks ago. I'm having a fun but hard time with gesture – especially, I guess, distinguishing between contour and actual gesture. Not sure if I'm grasping the concept sufficiently to move on to the bean... Would love some suggestions on how to improve!

Hello ninapolak, First off, very nice job, overall. Your linework smokes my skill level, so I will leave the critique to the more qualified. Inspired by your linework, I share my tiny victory in figure sketching. Taking my focus off my line work for a moment and staring at the photo's negative space helps me improve angles and spacing. I recognize the model you used in your "3 of 5" attachments, so I marked it up as an example. The point is when I can "see" the negative space's shape, then I pick up my pencil and make adjustments to my gesture's armature. I hope you find value in this. Keep up the nice work!
