added comment inHow to Analyze Gesture in Art
I just started digital drawing so I am really struggling with line quality, but I was kinda proud of this one. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Keep up the awesome work everyone. I really enjoy seeing everyone's progress!

These lines look great! If you want a bit more taper on them you can turn on pressure opacity in photoshop. If you're working in procreate, you can try to buy a brush pack that has brushes with pressure opacity. That will fade your lines off at the ends to make the stroke more tapered. Hope this helps!

Hey! Awesome video. I have a question. Demo 2 from this video. The left side of the figure shows the abdominal stretch/thoracic. But the right side pinches, so I was curious why that's represented with an asymmetrical curve opposing the thoracic? I'm probably overthinking it haha. I Understand we aren't drawing contour, so I am guessing that is just a representation of the motion of the twisting torso.
Thanks for any insights!

Yep, you got it! Thats exactly what I was thinking. You could draw it differently and still get a good result though. I don't think you're wrong in your observation.

Here's my sub! I found out I really stink at dividing things in 1/2 and 1/3rds. I forgot the back view and I had to redo my measurements a few times. Ahh ADHD, my old nemesis lol.
I also drew this way too wide the first time. This is my second attempt. I'll for sure do this a couple more times.
Great job everyone. I really like all the submissions. Everyone's working hard!

Here is my try on the assignment.I think my front view came out a little too wide.
Great course so far.

Level 1. I did two sets of the toga guy because I felt the first one was too samey same. So, I tried to mix it up some more to get some different effects.

Been sick, but knocked a few out on the couch. This was a great
exercise for sure. Level 1.

Having an overview of the proportions this early in the course will help a ton. I found that a lot of times, it's added in towards the end of a course. I struggled with it. Time to practice. Thanks Michael!

Hello, I have had huge trouble getting your latest book on gesture. Amazon doesn’t have it. I finally found one with Mighty Ape who I haven’t heard of and I have to wait for it to be delivered on 18 March. Hope it arrives. I’m so looking forward to my figures looking more expressive.

I'm really sorry to hear that, Lesley. Unfortunately, I have no control over Amazon or distribution. I worked with a publisher on this book so am out of the loop on all things shipping.
Here's my attempt at level 1. The third one looks like a Duran Duran cover hahahhaa. This was fun. I need to work on it more. I get indecisive about what to do.
