added comment inHow to Draw Gesture
Asked for help
Hello everyone. Here are a few of my gesture drawings. I can tell there are areas for improvement, but as a beginner, it's hard to discern where I should focus. Would greatly appreciate any feedback.

Hey Hi! I agree with you, there are certainly, always, areas of improvement. The good thing is that you got the goal of the exercise. I especially love the faster ones because you restrained from drawing the details and it gives a stronger sense of motion. I suggest you to slowly increase the drawing time but to stay in the 60-90 seconds range for a while

well first thing I see is that you are trying to put too much detail and if you are just starting up is very common. my suggestion is to then focus in the pear and try to make it as simple as possible. even more, first try to do the shading on a sphere so that you are not bothered with all the complexities of the shape.
second, you should try to render your values more evenly. an easier exercise is to fill little swatches with a value, usually you do this with four intensities, from the blackest black you can do with your pencil to the lightest light one.
really excited to get my hands on issue 1 of that comic!!
