Of course,
though you look more at the model, but if you didn't look at the paper you'd be all over the place.

ah i love gesture-drawing. i find it is so much less stressful to spend 30 seconds quickly sketching out the figure, because you don't have any time to worry about the anatomy

I agree! i love it! theres no better way to learn anatomy without trying too hard too! the relaxed drawing makes it so much easier to absorb complex information visually

hey one question is it nesesary to make gestures of every posible pose to learn to draw from the mind or just some poses
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, you start to do the gestures as instinct after you get enough practice. everything has a gesture, from a human body to a blade of grass.
so in regards to your other question, yes the head poses should have a gesture as well. generally the centre line of the face, but thats quite a generalization

I find the first one to be the most like what I would think I do for gestures...
Then again... sometimes my gestures are stick people! *blush*
