Wow this actually makes a lot of sense. Drawing gestures like that gives you a sense of movement and position, proportions of the pose and then you can start building on top of it. But this is really the foundation and it's not too overwhelming, I'm going to practice this method, thank you so much!
I think the hardest part is visualizing how something will look like in a certain angle in 3D space. It’s. Like drawing a cube from many different perspectives. This is when referencing comes handy. I can’t draw without references.
Do you ever think you could make a guideline of what to learn in order? When i first started out, i did what many others did. Start with the anatomy and the muscles. But it never came out right, and i never understood it. As a beginner, i didn't even really know about gesture drawing. I think it would be great help to some if there was some sort of list that artists could follow while gradually getting higher and higher in the difficulty and having the proper foundation to improve further.
Hey! I made a fundamentals course for that. In general though, you might want to check out my "best way to improve your art" video, since it really is subjective beyond a certain point. The only thing you really need is spatial awareness/perspective, then the rest comes in the order in which you need it (you can have a teacher help you figure it out or check out the video/self critique list)
I have trouble simply finding the gesture. I just cant figure out which direction the shoulder and hips are slanted sometimes and then have trouble with proportions. Started tracing in a figure over a couple poses then doing 1 or two not traced. Seems like it helps but feels like my brain is just not compatible.
Here is the trick: don't try to figure it out if it's ambiguous! Instead, just decide arbitrarily, then follow your drawing for the rest, rather than the reference
Sorry for the late reply, the comment ended up in the spam folder. It really depends on where you are, and if that's what you need right now. If it is, quick gestures like that can get you up to speed really fast, for inventing poses, that is. If you are trying to get more fluidity or dynamism, make sure you get the correct reference
Don't worry Mr. I'm slow too
🙌
This is going straight into my practice playlist. Great video!
Awesome! Good luck!
😂it's also going into my playlist too
Omg I’ve been looking for a proper gesture drawing tutorial for so long and I finally found it! I can’t wait to practice!
Have fun!

Glad it helped!

It helps a lot to experiment using simple boxes and rotating them at pre-defined angles
Thanks man this helped me out so much!
Glad it helped!

That's great, but how do I know which part has the weight?
Usually you either guess or just decide. If it's uncertain you definitely make a decision and run with it
I’m slow as well
Practicing this at 14 so I can get into art school. Thnx bro👍
Have fun!

I found nemo 💀, btw great vid!!
Lol
How much do you recommend to practice gesture drawing and how much time?
