Tyger sketches

yo, thanks for your comment! put a link to your sketchbook in your signature, it'd make it easier to find!

First of, I'm really impressed by your painting skills, and kids too!?! tough subject matter there.
It was really cool to see your gesture and action studies. Lots of fun, and really awesome to see that you try to pick apart things you study and understand instead of just copying. I've got a few links that have helped me out with my gesture drawing I'd like to share, maybe you'll find em helpful too!
First off, this post from the Temple of the Seven Golden Camels gave me something of a breakthrough in considering what shapes the different body parts should take, and I take a look at the information all the time when I feel stuck drawing poses.

Really that entire blog is a goldmine for improving your art and gesture drawing especially, I've read through all the archives once and now I want to do it again XD

Another post I've found really helpful is this handout by Sherm Cohen, a storyboard artist on spongebob. It has a lot of great tips for achieving clarity and story in your poses.

I think it's awesooooome that you're doing gestures form a variety of interesting activities, I oughta do some martial arts and performance gestures myself, seems like a ton of fun! I recommend adding some old silent movie actors to your selection, they had to tell the story through gestures so their poses are very clear, and entertaining! Vaudeville and theater and maybe mimes would be good too I guess :D so much fun stuff to draaawww!

Okay second to last thing, if you have not heard of/bought Walt Stanchfield's two volumes of gesture handouts for his class at Disney called Drawn to Life, I cannot recommend highly enough you get your hands on them! the guy's insight is just astounding, I read a section form those every day as part of my warmups. The thing he discusses most is staying loose and drawing to depict clearly what's happening in the pose, rather than drawing all the parts in the right places. Not to say that's what you're doing, but it's always great having a reminder! And again, the whole books is nuggets of figure drawing and philosophical gold.

I am done talking so here's a pile of links! Sorry for the text wall, I should really try not to write comments at this late hour, I tend to get rather rambly. and link-happy! XD

I forgot I had this bookmarked but it seems informative XD
