Explore an alternative way of thinking about gesture drawing. Instead of focusing solely on the flowy lines of gesture, we'll emphasize shape and part, and then apply gesture and perspective to these simplified forms. This approach allows you to customize parts of the figure, giving them subtle indications of behavior or perspective.
We'll practice this method using reference images, comparing it to the traditional approach, and see how it affects our understanding and execution of gesture drawing.
