This is so helpful, hearing your thought process as you go! I've been agonizing over gesture drawing for months, reading and watching everything I could find - even enrolled in two different courses specifically on gesture trying to figure it all out, and doing a ton of hideous drawings. 🤦‍♀️ Are you developing a course for this platform?
