Gesture drawing is a fundamental skill and one that many artists find difficult to approach, but in this course, I'll be showing you how I tackle this subject and give you everything you need to draw gestures with ease.

Hello. Will we be notified when then next lesson comes out so we don't have to keep checking? Thank you.

If you are following the course/purchased the course, you should get an email shortly after each new lesson is released. If not, it might be in your spam box? The latest email was titled "Proportions Critique and Advanced Chart Drawing" - did you receive that one?
To be honest, I’m not too happy in the way that this course is being handled. There’s no schedule to see when lessons will be uploaded and 2 lessons over 3 weeks is unacceptable considering the presale starting date. I always thought the lesson were being created while waiting for the release date on February, but I guess I was wrong.

Hey, sorry that's my bad. I'm an editor and also set the schedule. We were trying to make sure everyone had a chance to submit their assignments for critique and we didn't want to jump ahead while students are working on the assignment since this is pre-requisite knowledge. In good news, we are set to have 2 primary lessons a week consistently for the rest of the course, though weeks where a critique is coming out will stay at 1 video for that week for the above reasons. I agree that I should have stacked the previous lessons all in one week though vs the way we set them. I hope that helps shed light on the behind the scenes stuff!

Sorry to hear you're unhappy. All lessons have been recorded minus the critique videos. Please know that Proko does have a no questions asked refund policy.
I thought there would be 2 lessons per week. When will the next lesson be released?

Hey! I responded to this question in the above post that ortizdaking asked. Hope that info helps!
I am soooo excited about this course. I also bought the book after seeing the first video. I have been waiting for a course like this for years. The section in the first video where you talked about where the hands are usually placed totally blew my mind! It's so simple, and common sense and it's true! I've taken many art courses, gesture drawing included, and NO ONE has ever said that! Great work Mr. Hampton!
will this course go over construction methods for quick gesture drawing? like one minute poses, two minute poses, five minute poses, etc?
•

There's no construction in this course as in developing the figures perspectives.
Would you recommend taking this course before or after intro to figure construction?
•

I guess it would make the most sense to take this course first.
Will this course be for all gestures? An understanding of how gestures work in everyday organic stuff and not just humans?

It's a course on gesture drawing for the figure.
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.
Yes! First lesson drop! Looking forward to getting started when I get home from work. I LOVED the Figure Drawing and Head drawing courses, and have been waiting for more Hampton in my life!
Just completed the intro to Gesture course. I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation. It's very clear you've contemplated this subject and the history of figure drawing extensively. Thank you giving us this clear understanding of gesture.

So glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Is there a schedule of when or how often the next videos will drop for this course?
•

Thanks, Emily! Not sure, need to double check that. They are more spaced out to start to allow for critiques.
release..release..release..re...!
This is the first Proko course I am joining! I am excited for it to start :)

Welcome!
Michael, pleased to be a part of this course. Looking for concept clarity and help with technical aspects of effective gesture drawing (as the basis for a more complete “piece”). Seems an essential element for believable representation of human form.

Welcome! Happy to have you. Im optimistic that I'll be able to help.
Super excited for this course!! Counting the hours to release :D
Hi Michael and classmates. I am highly excited to join you all in learning gesture drawing. I would love to get better at practicing figure drawing this year since I'm very bad at it. I am highly looking forward to this course. Definitely looking forward to this journey.
