the more I attend these sessions the fast I feel like I get with my gesture drawing. My 30 second poses are always my favourite because they feel more dynamic and in motion.
One thing Vanessa suggested to me was to not get as carried away with details especially on the 3 minute poses if I need to it’s ok to more around the room for another angle. Also exaggerating poses is encouraged, this kind of life drawing differs to what I’m used to. It’s about breaking the body down and drawing the action not what we see
