Day 155 Gesture Drawings

Gesture drawing is the topic this week in Sketchbook Skool. Gesture drawings are meant to be quick figure studies of people in action and uses expressive mark making to capture the sense of movement. I had to use online images of dancers tonight since I wasn't out and about to capture people in action. I really seem to have a hang up regarding people/faces. I just can't seem to loosen up with them so even these drawings are too tight for gesture drawings. But I'm satisfied with this attempt. I'm thinking I should look into taking a figure drawing class at some point.
