I had a look on your gestures and I have some advices to help you out with some energy inside them, try to make those line more freely without interruption and with pinball effect on them. Have a look on Michael Hampton Design and Ivention book, he has some nice perception of what to do studying gestures! Keep doing them, you're doing REALLY well!! I would love to see csome aplication of those gestures in art pieces!!! Be safe man!

Sorry for my fail attempt it still fairly new to me in fact it was my first attempt.Zoom in if needed.

not sure how you do your routine if you have one at all lol but maybe you could try and get some gesture drawing in.... like 20 minutes of 1 min gesture warmups before getting started for the day and to give your figures more movement https://bit.ly/2CwiPUJ

Consider looking into how Ambient Occlusion works a bit more - it'll add a lot to these. For example, softening and darkening the potato's edge as it 'rolls' into the fabric will make it feel a lot more like it's actually laying on there.

Keep it up!
