I tried the 2 minute rhythm gesture exercise. I started on paper but ended doing it digitally to avoid wasting paper. It is really difficult for me to understand how to catch the rhythm, I was copying what Stan was doing on the demo video but couldn't apply that on the exercise with other pictures. If someone can help me understand, or giving any advice on how to catch the rhythm or any critiques, it would be wonderful! Thank you <3

Here are some of my attempts at the 2 minutes gesture poses, and a couple of the 30 second ones. I'm struggling to keep some of my drawings fully on the page, but I am aware of this and am open to help and feedback

these are my attempts at some of the 2 minute gesture sketches

working through this course again

Here’s a shorter and improved version of your text: “Hey everyone, I’ve been practicing figure drawing daily after taking a course. I’m not a fast learner, but I love the process and was proud of my progress with the first few examples. I took a break to focus on portraits for a while, but now that I’m back to figure drawing, I feel like I’ve gotten worse. It’s frustrating and makes me angry, which only leads to more bad drawings. Any tips or advice would be really appreciated!” first 5: proud of that i make a month ago last 2: is from now

I dont think I understanding things correctly

Just some more progress on my 2 minute gestures

This is a bunch of 2 minute quick sketch that I did over multiple days. These are really fun to do so I will keep up the daily routine of them. Some poses can be really hard and I mess up proportion a lot but I hope to improve with time : )

Here are some attempts at gesture. I know I've got a long way to go. I keep making the head too small.

Here is my attempt to follow along with the quicksketch 2 minute gesture demo. I have trouble with proportion. And, I draw too many lines.

Ignore the silly toenails.. I tend to do this with most drawings just having fun.

Can someone help me with these? I tried copying the references from the video and I'm not sure if this is good. Please help!🙏

Having a lot of trouble establishing flow & rhythm. I think I understand conceptually how to do gesture but physically I feel like I’m missing something (or maybe a few things?) I’ve watched the videos a bunch of times (and will continue to) but can anyone give me pointers? Much appreciated.

My camera is bad and my lines are super messy lol. I tried the lighting with photoshop but oh well.

Gesture practice, 2nd try

Warming up

Feels like my lines aren’t as confident but really getting hang of feeling the motion!

This Is my first day drawing 2-minute and 30-second gesture sketches. Most of these are 2-min., but there are a couple made in 30 seconds. Any feedback is welcome! I really want to improve my drawings.

more practices, getting better as I watch the demos
