untimed. Trying to be accurate, but it's really hard to do it in 1 go. I need to overlap the photo reference, turn it off and fix it and check a couple of times

2 min gestures
Generally, when I sit down to do some gesture studies to post in this thread, I mentally revise either Stan's rhythm class in the basics course or Michael's classes in the gesture course and do my best to follow their respective instructions. Today I was unmindfully drawing some gestures, not to post in this thread or for any particular use. It was just for my eyes and I loved the style of my lines on the canvas! Maybe, finally, I found the style I am most comfortable in while doing quick drawings, at least for now.
that's great! it reminds me of ppl mentioning Kimon Nicolaides' teaching in his book "The Natural Way How to Draw" about gesture that he guide people to find their own individual natural way to draw. I havent read and followed the exercises in his book as well but its been on my mind and plan to someday. The exercises schedule is extremely demanding tho, ppl have been saying that we dont have to really adhere to that schedule strictly as told by he book.

Silly me so afraid of destroying it, trying to make it clean. But the perspective tilt is wrong. Fix:
