Here is my attempt to mimic great artist ))) I made it digitally. I like the result but i still don't understand how to keep drawing so light and soft and voluminous at same time. When i try to keep drawing light it becomes blurred and lose texture. And it is easy for me to make drawing too dark very quickly without adding much volume.

This is a strange course, so far. Topics and informations are thrown there,wildly, which is totally different from Stan's lessons that are very structured. But I like it too. Just seeing Patrick drawing live can make me learn stuff like a sponge.
So I tried drawing a female figure from imagination, starting with very strong gesture lines, and trying to keep them alive. And well, I failed. In the end, adding anatomy on top made me lose the nice flows I had at the beginning, no matter what. I especially feel bad for the left shoulder which doesn't look right at all.
I'll try again after watching more videos, and we'll see if my drawings can get more stylish and gestural.

I just started watching these and I'm glad I'm not the only one who was confused by the structure. I agree with David's reply to mattherbruck, below. I think this is sort of a draw-along and make multiple passes over the videos.
As far as feedback, I think your drawings are nice and anatomy is good, I just think it's the proportions that are throwing it off. I have the same issue of connecting each body part at the correct scale to other parts, which is one reason I am taking this course. A suggestion that might help is to draw with a thinner line weight, and vary the weight to be thicker for areas that would be in shadow. I noticed that some your lines look pretty much the same thickness all around on the last 2 drawings.

There's a lot to keep track of in these first two courses. Between what he's saying and drawing and the reference changing or disappearing I'm never sure where I should be focusing

From what I can tell, you should rewatch this when you are finished. This seems like one of those courses, where you can keep pulling stuff from it from several playthroughs and get miles better each time
