gesture drawring: you’re doing it wrong!
Here’s a compilation of drawings from Mark McDonnell’s Clothed Gesture Quick Sketch Class from this past Sunday. These were the more successful drawings from the day. However, there are far more drawings that got me a good scolding. I’m still having trouble trying to capture the initial gesture without getting too scribbly and inefficient with my line quality. And as a result, I probably overthink it and draw without feeling the overall rhythm. Hopefully, I’ll find a happy medium and get some consistency in my drawings as opposed to making marks and hoping something cool with happen. But anyways, the class is fun and worth it. So sign up for Mark’s summer session of the class at LAAFA.
These drawings consist of 5 minute poses.
