Get the Hang of the Gesture - For Beginners and Reentries

“Drawing is still basically the same as it has been since prehistoric times.

It brings together man and the world. It lives through magic.”

Keith Haring

The Beauty of the Gesture (and a working way to capture it)

The Gesture is the most essential part of the figure drawing process. The Gesture is often misunderstood with fast and uncontrolled scribbles in fact gesture drawing is a focused, deliberate and by the way a most enjoyable process.

Like in my other Bestselling Figure Drawing Course I will lead you in small steps through the entire  drawing process. This time the focal point lies on the Gesture a most critical part of the figure drawing process.

I have put special attention to the selected poses in order guarantee that by the end of the course you will have drawn and understood various static and dynamic poses ranging from simple to more complex.

The first part of the course is structured in "Warm Up exercises", "Tricks of the Trade Tutorials" and the "Preparation Tutorials". The Preparation Tutorials will show you everything you need to know for the following modules.

We will draw from loads of reference images and you will get to know the whole process. The "Tricks of the Trade Tutorials" deal with important drawing concepts like "foreshortening", "twist", "turn" and so on. You will get to know the necessary anatomy to enhance the gestural basis.

We will have a close look at the finished drawings and will find out what is working and what needs to be improved, and how we actually can improve it.

We will also use the paint brush to capture the "Volume" of the gesture and  draw over it with a fountain pen.I have prepared quite a number of timed poses ranging from 30 Seconds to 5 Minutes.

Please note that  this course features reference images of a fully nude models, please conduct yourself maturely.
Although this is a  figure drawing course for beginners and reentries , some basic drawing skills are recommended.

By the end of the course you will be able to execute beautiful gesture drawings which you can further work on or as I often do see them as stand alone works of art.

Let's get to it - i see you at the inside!
