Hey Faeriebea!
Depending on what you are studying gesture for, the critique can vary greatly. Basing off what you did, I can assume the time you spent was at least a few minutes on each figure and are looking to practice making finished sketches.
You did a beautiful full page of completed figures and it looks like you have a good grasp of drawing. I can recreate every pose and thats my measurement of a successful gesture drawing. Very impressive!
I would say pay attention to proportion and dynamic lines. In the bottom left theres a man crossing his legs, It looks like the legs are too short and the foot in the back appears bigger than the one in the front. Youll hear it 100 times but details should be the last step, so before small things like toes, make sure the overall shapes are the correct size using reference lines. Some poses are a bit static. To make any drawing look less stiff and more life like, use dynamic lines. A quick way to do this is avoid straight lines and perfect symmetry.
Thanks for letting me practice critique! You are already great and I hope you keep a study routine. Dont forget to simplify to make things easier.
