Gesture And Structure

[Carlos Perez]

Hey guys , I’m practicing my gesture and my structure on my figure drawing.

My focus is draw a simple yet characteristic shape of the head, torso, hips and limbs, and make them feel 3 dimensional.

I drew this one on my last drawing session, any feedback is welcomed. Thanks.

First image, Left: I like the attitude of the pose, it reads in its action. The legs are too symmetrical. Character could’ve been added by slightly by one of the legs pushing towards farther to the viewer. I assume he has been drinking. The hand reads too much like a mitten. Simplification/envelopes are good, try adding in some planes to separate the palm and fingers as shape masses. Lower leg/foot on the right: make sure to have the foot ‘curve off’ of the leg rather than having a sharp corner. Same for the figure below. Its far leg has corner.

Construction is good. Keep at it. Study the drawings of Tintoretto.

Cheers
