All In Gesture – Inigo Montaya

All In Gesture – Inigo Montaya

These Inigo Montaya gesture drawings from a The Princess Bride-inspired All In Gesture class were challenging, but perhaps not in the way you expect. I found Inigo's hair to be the most difficult thing to draw ... I felt I captured this character more closely than...

All In Gesture – Miss Hannigan

All In Gesture – Miss Hannigan

This Miss Hannigan gesture drawing class was a whole lot of fun. It's from back in the All In Gesture archive. I don't think I quite captured Carol Burnett from the 1982 Annie movie, but it was a good challenge. It's 'only' been two months since I posted my Moana...

All In Gesture – Moana

All In Gesture – Moana

This was a fun gesture session from the All In Gesture archives. I'm horribly rusty so drawing Moana, one of my favourite Disney characters, was a good way to ease back into things! My last gesture drawings were from back in September (!), of Medusa. I'm aiming to...

Life Drawing, 8th November

Life Drawing, 8th November

It's been a long, long time since I last drew at an in-person life drawing class. Last month I went along to Looking Sketchy Life Drawing in Galashiels, with Lexi modelling. Though out of practice it was a lot of fun spending more time on poses and allowing myself to...

All In Gesture – Taylor Swift

All In Gesture – Taylor Swift

I tried something new with this session: I recorded my screen as I drew! Watch the video below for a look at all the drawings I normally never let anyone see ...It was a good exercise as I can spot when I'm struggling with a pose, and start to noodle. In those cases...

All In Gesture – Pirate

All In Gesture – Pirate

Lots of fun poses in this pirate gesture session! I've been thinking about putting together some notes about how I approach gesture drawing, and some of the things I practice - which I need to practice more of myself. Let me know if that's something you'd be...

All In Gesture – Freddie Mercury

All In Gesture – Freddie Mercury

In last week's All In Gesture class Ralph posed as Freddie Mercury - except it was more than posing, it was performing. A great session and a good challenge! My drawings at the beginning resembled Mirror Universe Spock but I seemed to get the hang of it towards the...

All In Gesture – Jane

All In Gesture – Jane

It's been great to get back to gesture drawing, and what a session to do it with! Jane's a wonderful character. I loved exploring some of the situations from Tarzan - and now I know what I'm watching tonight!

All In Gesture – King Triton

All In Gesture – King Triton

After a bit of a break from drawing, this was a good (but difficult) way to start again! I was just starting to figure King Triton out by the time the session ended ...
