Here are couple gesture drawings of mine. I think I have most of the fundamentals for gesture down, so I'd like some critique to iron out the rest of my mistakes before I move on.

Great work, these are looking really expressive! I'd say that perhaps you could get a little more form in the limbs. i feel like they may be getting a bit lost in some drawings. i also feel like there's a bit of a disconnect between the upper and lower body. i think it may be because you are stopping the line of action half way down the body and then picking it back up again in the legs. i think this can have the effect of breaking the gesture. maybe try and get a more continuous line of action defining your idea for the pose through the body. and use the same idea for the limbs, look at how they flow from one to the other.

Hello! I tried to draw the gesture design, not the details.
Can you see it from these？
And what should I be more conscious of to improve my drawing？
I’m eager to hear your comments and critiques😊

Hi Yuri,
These are looking great, i'd just say to watch some of your proportions around the torso. there's a few instances here where the rib cage is squashed and too close to the hips. keep up the good work
