The final week of class was most enjoyable because we finally had a chance to put every part of the body into my composition with anatomical accuracy. Gesture drawing are something that i have struggled with the entire semester. My drawing style usually involves a slower line stroke with focus on economy and line direction. Being able to use every party of the body helped my difficulty with speed because of there being more reference points to go off of. Line weight is something else I progressively got better at this semester also. I think that my choice of drawing material helped the most. i began the semester using dark chunky charcoal and decided to switch to pencil. It was easy for me to tell the difference in line weight. This class has given me the ability to draw with speed and give an accurate representation of human form. I'm excited to use this knowledge in future drawing classes.
