I wound up watching the last Schoolism lesson from Thomas F. on composition. It was interesting and going through the student feedback was, of course, helpful. Good input.
Today I went through the first lesson of Alex Woo's class on gesture and followed along with the exercises. I think I got the gist of it, but there would be a few things I'd probably do a bit differently having now watched the student feedback videos. (Softening/rounding certain areas to indicate female body, adding more 'attitude' to some of the poses.) I can definitely see this being good shorthand for getting initial ideas down on paper. The way I was doing this before was sort of like this, but much more stick-figureish. (Think Loomis figures.)
These are from doing the lesson exercises. Not much to critique or comment about with these, but still progress!
