Hi, here's some of the measuring practise I have done recently. I compared the original photos to the drawings digitally: Blue lines are the "correct" lines from the reference photo, while the red lines are the "wrong" lines in the drawing. This makes it easier to see where I was off. Sorry about the weird shadows on the photos i took btw. Critique/ feedback is very welcome!

Cool! - If you're interested in measuring and accuracy, you might appreciate checking out Dorian Iten's Accuracy Guide (Accuracy Guide Lesson ). I found it and his accuracy exercises https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMX3K3YMbd8&t=7s really helpful. - I've heard that Leonardo Da Vinci started his figure drawings with a vertical line and maybe a marking of the halfway point. I've tried this myself, and I feel like having this vertical line (that you've decided is intersecting a specific point on the body) to relate to is really helpful, yet very simple. Hope this helps :)

Hello! Here are some gesture drawings that I have done recently. I would like to get some feedback, as i'm not really sure how i'm doing.

Hi Ingrid! Nice sketches :) I would definately say that I can see you're getting better with each page! :) Two minutes sketches are really good, I would practice more on 30 second ones, especially I would focus more on line quality. Maybe try to do them with as few strokes as possible? And be confident with them, because right now they are a bit wobbly and they should be more fluid, so the gesture would read easily. Good luck there!
