GESTURE DRAWING EXPLAINED! Is this part of the gesture or style?

If you ever wonder what elements of your favorite drawings are actual gesture drawing elements, and what elements are that particular artist’s style, look no further. In this video I get into the nitty gritty to fully explain gesture drawing. I will list out the four elements that you can use to establish a barebones gesture and how to vary them to your own liking to create a gesture reflective of your style and taste. You’ll also learn how and why these gesture figure drawing examples look so different from each other, while still ALL counting as gestures. And l’ll also show you how to take these principles and transfer them to non-human subject matters.
