Drew along all the critiques to get a better sense of what you were looking for. Think I also was trying to just construct as they were shown to me rather then focusing on just the energy and rhythm of the pose. Im guessing as a rule all these gestures should be drawn from the arm to get that flowing line. (I drew from the wrist for most of my life)

Yeah more art history seeping into the lessons! Definitely gonna keep an eye on connections of rhythms.

Thanks for the critique Micheal that was very helpful!

Awesome critique video, Michael. I have to watch this again and take notes.

Thanks for the critiques, very insightful on things to pay attention to when working on these gestures

Thanks so much, Michael, for posting the critique video on the first lesson. I learned quite a bit from watching this one. Also, I truly enjoyed the assignment on finding pictures to go on to our first steps of mastering gestures. The stuff I found through my art books, I had, and poses I found were quite a fun challenge to conquer. I'm definitely going to watch the remaining videos soon and look forward to continuing to practice and preparing for the upcoming assignments. I'm definitely going to keep on practicing with this to get better. :)
