added comment inHow to Simplify the Motion of the Torso – The Bean
hey guys this is a few pages i try doing for the bean exercise, this is the first time i ever did this is so i kind of mess up in a few places i think but i don't know. I'm going to draw 50 more beans as my new assignment i give to myself
feedback is appreciated. PS i try to darken the lines this time so you can actually see it, back in gesture i was use to making my lines as light as possible

For a first time your beans are looking good!
My initial thoughts are that you should exaggerate the beans more, this may be my ryes playing tricks on me but they all look very similar in pose and exaggeration.
My second thought is that it seems like many of your beans are more oval, there is nothing wrong with that but it makes them look a bit flat compared to full, rounded circles.
Do with that what you will and keep up the good work, they really do look good and your lines are very neat!

This is only my second time trying the bean. I feel I struggle with the squash and stretch as well as showing the form and shape. Any critique on these topics or anything else you notice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Good work E.A.V.! Try to play up the stretching side by not drawing in the bumps on that side. Make the stretching side more of a smooth curve to help the bean flow better and feel like it is stretching. I think the little bumps on the stretched side stop that stretching and flow from happening.
I have been working on watercolour painting and I always get to a point where I don't know what to do next. Any advice on how to continue a painting and complete would be appreciated. I am a complete beginner when it comes to this so I am getting stuck.

I have been working on gesture for the past five days or so. I am still unsure how to draw the forms of the body so I would be interested to know of any artists that you like that I could look at their gestures and emulate some different styles?
Any other critiques or advice is also welcome.
These are two minute gestures.
@E. A. V. Good studies! Artists you could take a look at to study gestures are for example Alex Woo and Wouter Tulp.
