added comment inFigure Drawing Critiques - Gesture
Hi there, I just started the courses and these are a few of my 2 min gesture drawings. I am unsure of what I’m doing wrong or right. Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.

@limmy I really like how fluid most of the poses are. I still can’t get it. I’m a beginner, but I’ve watched a video with critiques where they talked about an issue that you might be having - some of the poses have those “itchy-scratchy lines” - many short ones instead of long and few lines and it seems like there you try to show an outline instead of capturing the energy of a pose.

*I am a student so please take or leave my advice as you see fit* I think these are quite good. Nice long fluid lines in some of them, some you are 'petting' I think for me it helps when I try to be 'intentional with my lines. Gesture for me is a bit of balance between intentional stroke and 'feeling' the energy of the pose. Keep going, well done.
