This is so cool. Been trying to do these 2, 5 and 10 mins drawing and boy it’s fun but I still struggle with the 2 mins one. It helps a lot seeing how you work with them. I’m gonna try doing this when the video is over. Thanks!!
This is exactly what I needed. I didn’t believe in myself but after following this video I realized how much more I can accomplish than I think. With the time limit I don’t overthink and just do the body parts. Thank you sm for this!!!
@@jorvicsalazar7905 i love watching you vids it really helps on my anatomy though I'm still not very good but thank you for upload these kinds of videos
Amazing practice session😊 Did all the gesture drwings with you with 10B,the result is just awesome..its like pushing ourself and improving our rapid sketching and most importantly the observation power👌👏🏻👏🏻😊
This made me realize I'm pushing myself too hard, just started trying this with 60 second limit, on a website that immediately changes the pictures at the 60 seconds I'll gather some pictures myself and time them manually, start at 2 minutes like you did, lowering it gradually. Thank you for the guidance!
hello, this video has really helped me a lot to improve the proportions of my drawings, this channel really needs a lot more support greetings from Mexico, new subscriber :D Postscript: your drawings are great I am really impressed by how fast you do it, I admire you a lot ✨
I’m heck of struggling on my first time drawing this on my college classes, but after watch you u and learning some tips, I feel a little confident and better about myself. I’ll try doing some when I have time thanks :)
When we started doing doing 30 sec drawings, I gave up on the second and just watched you draw 😅. But seriously, this video has been helpful for me and alot of other people as shown in the comments, I've learnt that gesture drawing isn't about precision, it's about learning how the body works. I'm gonna share this to my friend who's also having trouble with poses👍
Omg the faster it got, the more anxiety I had watching it hahaha. Thank you for making this video, super helpful and funny. Now it's time for me to attempt it lol..
After some long search i found this video very useful. I could actually sketch along with the video but at my own pace. Atleast im happy i learnt the tricks to an extent. Thankyou !
this was incredibly helpful; thanks! one of my drawing classes jumped into gesture drawing day one with no examples and i felt very unprepared. my teacher just kept telling us to move fast and make big, long lines, but i like this slower, deliberate, form-focused approach a lot better.
Was looking for reference photos the other day and one of the photos I ended up drawing on was the exact same one used in the thumbnail, what a coincidence! Guess that’s my sign to watch this video lol.
Very helpful video! I first thought gesture drawing was tricky and daunting but after watching you do this and trying it myself it’s actually quite easy, it’s especially helpful with picture references thanks alot !
It's interesting how looseness is what makes the drawing. I keep seeing people say its the way you hold the pencil but I feel like that is very wrong. I have a very small space making drawing with my entire arm very hard and almost impossible but after watching this video it shows that looseness is the key to making good gestures overall. bravo!
I recommend drawing from a variety of teachers! By all means check out others as well. Not sure what qualifies as a professional but i teach for a living so I guess that's professional.
dude i loved your video, very inspiring. it just wasn't so good, because I didn't understand anything that was said. if you can put a subtitle in Br, I really appreciate it.
Dos años dibujando, avance exageradamente demasiado pero me di cuenta que las bases no las manejo muy bien, aunque se como 7 formas de hacer cada cosa, tambien considero que me falta soltar mas la mano, seguire practicando, unas 14 horas al dias o 15 no estan mal, creo. Vere muchas poses, gracias por la ayuda.
I am a brand new artist and I'm not exactly sure how this helps but It's fun so I'm doing it anyways! I'm sure it is helpful, I just don't know what it's helping
Thanks for asking and I'm glad you want them to work with. Hmmmm. Not sure I will make time to set that up as I already take to long just in making the videos. But you can find tons of reference on Pinterest if you look for it and a lot of images on Artstation for sale.
No just have them lined up in a file on my cpu. I edit them back into the video with the timer. But I suppose you could set up a slide show with timing in Google slides or power point.
Thanks. You know I usually just save the images as I find them because I use then for more of a work thing. My boards are filled with Star Wars, comics and miniature stuff.
Well in this approach gesture drawing is the first step. I would say just go for it and don't worry too much. Practice more and watch multiple people. You might pick something up from somewhere that might help you break through a rut.
As far as the drawing process goes I would start with gesture drawing but learning anatomy is great! I would not stop learning Anatomy as it is one of the next steps in the drawing process after gesture.
It's to get practice drawing human figures in various dynamic positions, and also sometimes for creating a layout sketch to figure out composition before either adding details or using it to plan a larger piece of art. Quick figure drawings like this are a really nice exercise for learning how to portray a recognizable figure with very little time and few details.
@@nikitanikita6155 Yes I do! There are websites that have poses for reference (like quickposes.com) and sometimes I will spend like 20 minutes just filling up a page of my sketchbook with drawings. I spend about 2 minutes on each one. I like it because there is no pressure to try to create perfect, finished pieces, so it is almost like a meditation for me. I am not a great artist by all means, but when I feel like I want to make some art but have no inspiration I will do figure drawings. Of course this might not be very fun for you, but it is a common exercise that many people do, and the point of it is that it is supposed to be very fast and roughly sketched so it doesn't take up too much of your day.
@@empirebuckler9938 Don't know, it's really difficult for me to draw anything without having a story. For my inspiration I usually research and come up some ideas and draw only whats needed for that concept. Does this figure drawing practice improve your drawing from imagination in some way? And do you develop these sketches or just leave them?
Well sorry to hear you feel that way but know that almost all artists feel that way about their work at some point. I would recommend looking at the growth you have had from a few years ago and hopefully you can find encouragement in that.
This is so cool. Been trying to do these 2, 5 and 10 mins drawing and boy it’s fun but I still struggle with the 2 mins one. It helps a lot seeing how you work with them. I’m gonna try doing this when the video is over. Thanks!!
Thanks. Yeah I feel the challenge as well. The challenge is part of what makes us get better.
lol
True I have started the same I try to do it myself first and then try to find if I did any mistake in my approach
This is exactly what I needed. I didn’t believe in myself but after following this video I realized how much more I can accomplish than I think.
With the time limit I don’t overthink and just do the body parts. Thank you sm for this!!!
Awesome! I'm so happy to hear that!
theses videos are perfect to draw along with you man, thanks
Great!
WOOOOOOOOOW Your drawings are sooo cool!!!
Great!
Haven't done life drawing in a minute so this is the closest thing. Really needed the refresher, thanks man.
Yeah always good to practice!
How he draws is basically my style but more refined which is good for me since I can study him and refine mine too
Super!

Thanks!
I'm from Brazil and I thought your work was really cool, congratulations =)
Thank you very much!
Looking through videos on drawing poses, so I can get an idea about what shapes I could draw for the body. I'd say you gave me some good ideas.
Glad I could help!
thank you! i havent drawn in a while and i was just thinkiing how i could warm up with some gesture drawings!

I like this. It trains the brain to not get lost in details
Epic! Gonna do the same practice. Thanks
Sweet!
I love how it's very simple, but has different methods from different people
So true. I think it's great even to see the way different people approach it.
My art style used to be cartoony but now I wanna up it to the next level. Practicing like this will help me better understand anatomy. Thansk
Awesome!
Your way of sketching my come in handy when practicing bodies. Thanks
Right on! Gesture drawing has been a tried and true way far beyond me.

Nice work!
Dos años dibujando, avance exageradamente demasiado pero me di cuenta que las bases no las manejo muy bien, aunque se como 7 formas de hacer cada cosa, tambien considero que me falta soltar mas la mano, seguire practicando, unas 14 horas al dias o 15 no estan mal, creo.

I'm glad! I find it fun as well.
Thank you❤🙏
You are so welcome
👏👏👏👏
Thanks!
So when doing gesture drawings isnt it the same as deconstructing the body
Interesting. I think of it more as the reverse. The start of construction of the body. But yes it is an abstraction of the body. Thanks!
How are you drawing the hands in gesture drawing so perfectly???
Oh man I rarely feel like I do!
Best
Thanks!
Thank you ❤️
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome 😊
thx
No problem
could you create a dropbox file with the pictures? Its only for practice/personal use, so licens needed, I love the first photo!
Thanks for asking and I'm glad you want them to work with. Hmmmm. Not sure I will make time to set that up as I already take to long just in making the videos. But you can find tons of reference on Pinterest if you look for it and a lot of images on Artstation for sale.
@@jorvicsalazar7905 I understand, thanks for these videos, I’m hoping you’ll make them continuously ❤️
This looks like a simple observation drawing.
Gotta start somewhere! They are geared towards a beginner class I teach in person.
do you use a slide show program to do this? it would be helpful
No just have them lined up in a file on my cpu. I edit them back into the video with the timer. But I suppose you could set up a slide show with timing in Google slides or power point.
Nice
Thank you!
PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup!
Where do you find these pictures for gesture drawings?
Everywhere from web searches and Deviant Art to Pinterest. I also buy some packets people put together on art station and gumroad.
Thanks
can you send me your board on pinterest? amazing video btw
Thanks. You know I usually just save the images as I find them because I use then for more of a work thing. My boards are filled with Star Wars, comics and miniature stuff.
well im watching gesture drawing on youtube
& everyone has his own style
i got confused which is right
but i guess all them are right
The more people with different styles you learn from the better. Lots of better artists out there than me.
super❣💗
Thank you! 😃
which pencil is he using?
black col-erase prismacolor.
Bod give me tips how to improve gesture drawing
That was my first time for me doing gesture drawing so intense 😂
Ha! Have fun with it and don't take them so seriously. It's more of a practice thing.
I who draw the whole drawing with one line. Without even outlining: 🗿
Nice!
Please am struggling rough with the gesture drawing and I don't know how to start it I u can help me step by step

@@jorvicsalazar7905 thank you
Is their a reason you start from 2 minutes and go down?
Yes. To warm up. Kind of like exercising, start slow then speed up.
23:12 Can anyone tell me how to find this angle poses
Did you mean that exact image? or more info on how to search for poses like that?
@@jorvicsalazar7905 Exact info how to find poses like that..... How to find it....
What is the purpose of such redrawing practice? (I'm new in this, so don't understand)

Opposite of exaggerate is "downplay".
True.
I feel like all the tutorials I watch are useless for me I cannot apply it, I struggle drawing faces even I focused a lot in it during 6 y.
Well sorry to hear you feel that way but know that almost all artists feel that way about their work at some point. I would recommend looking at the growth you have had from a few years ago and hopefully you can find encouragement in that.
@@jorvicsalazar7905 yes I probably improved but it is so slow I will die before I reach my goals it depresses me.
These seem to have a lot of details for a gesture drawing. More like a figure sketch instead of a gesture drawing .
Yeah it kind of is.I agree. Maybe it's just the way I do it. More of a structure for a more complete drawing.
reference images?
website plz
So Artstation and Gumroad are where I get most of them.
if i cheat you can cheat too😅
