Figure practice, 2mins each

Good morning to you, Doqq, and welcome aboard to Line of Action. How are you doing today? I'm Polyvios, and I'm finer and like I asked, how are you? Great job on capturing your forces and silhouettes of your figure sketches. Way to go and please keep pushing your envelope.

However, I am still not getting enough flowing appeal and expression in your graphic lines or shapes. Kindly loosen up your non-dominant hand with 30 minutes of 1 minute 45 second quick pose sketches? The reason why you should and could do this suggestion is because it will help you make your posing style less stiffer and less than rigid and more bolder and stronger in your lines of action and rhythm. Also, I recommend you to look into Fun with a Pencil and Figure Drawing by Andrew Loomis in PDFS. My hat's off to you, so let's hope they encourage you.

You are excellent at depicting the outlines of the body. SOmething tell me you've drawn a lot

Now something you could work on is your line confidence. I can actually telll you are very slowly dragging your pencil across the paper, matching the pictures you see, but they are slightly jittery because the muscle in your arm can't help but shake. Maybe practice with quicker poses and fewer, but smoother lines.

Don't be afraid to use more paper too. Drawing the whole figure is super helpful when you gotta practice figure drawing and cramping your sketches on one page not only hides body parts, it subconsciosly makes you shrink proportions in order to fit into the space. Newspaper print is your friend, as is the dollar store.

It really is impressive how well these are drawn when you haven't done much figure drawing. There a lot of directions to develope, but its so impressive just how much it isn't a jumbled mess of lines.
