Shape breakdown and my first time drawing animals. Holy crap I didn't know I could do this using shapes. I'm so freaking happy!!

Hello! This is my first time doing gesture drawings. The reference pictures are from lineofaction.com. These are 2 minute gesture drawings made after doing 50 or so. I want to make sure I'm on the right track. I'm finding myself run out of time before the 2 minutes are up. I'm using a chalk pen on clip studio paint. Do you prefer learning with pressure sensitivity or not? Do you work traditionally or digitally? Thanks!

Hi Rika, I really like the flow of your lines, they are very strong from a rythm point of view, like the waves in the sea. The only constructive feedback I can give now, is that the exageration of gesture drawings should be in the action lines, but not perse in the volumes and proportions of the bodyparts. The reason for that is when you want to put bodyparts into the gesture drawings later on, you might get into trouble, because it might look distorted. But again, the flow in your lines is great (I wish I had that flow in my lines!)

Hi Rika, I think they look really good! For me it is a inspiration. The only critique I could think of is that the man in the last photo has a big torso/belly when you compare it to the photo. Thanks for sharing.
