Ready to level up your figure drawings?
Begin every drawing with confidence.
Tired of drawing stiff-looking figures?
Have trouble getting the proportions to look correct?
Feel lost when you start a new figure drawing?
You're not alone. These issues are very common for artists at beginning and intermediate levels. We will give you the tools to solve each of these problems in this 2-hour course.
The gesture stage of the figure drawing process is incredibly important as it is the first step of every drawing. It will either set you up for a successful drawing or to struggle with repeatedly correcting proportions.
It’s very important that we understand how to set up our drawings the right way in order to allow the rest of the drawing process to go smoothly and create poses that look natural and accurately proportioned.
You will learn:
✅ How to quickly sketch accurate proportions in the gesture stage
✅ How to build the figure using simple shapes in perspective
✅ How to analyze poses for correct proportion
✅ How to complete a confident, proportionate gesture drawing
✅ Bonus: 60-minute figure drawing demo from Foreshortened Figure Drawing

Brian is not only excellent at teaching how to get good at this stage, but also how to actually enjoy it, do it with aesthetics, and make layins look incredibly cool.
