Hi I dont know if this will reply to any user in particular - or just the forum but to anybody who contributed to this thread thanks a lot : ) I definitely have been playing it safe with my mark making and not thinking critically and sticking to a pattern of what I thought worked. Obviously, that's good for certain applications (e.g only making CSI curves) but it definitely felt like I was holding back but I can't thank you guys enough :D this is my first time posting my art online so I'm so glad I did so here

Hi I'm recent to gesture drawing (around 4 months? so maybe not that long), and I've been having problems approaching 2-5 minute poses. I think the time paralyzes me and I get extremely self-conscious. Usually I can only make limited marks in fear of contradicting myself. Any tips on approaching this issue or the drawings itself (it's a five-minute pose btw)? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FoCWdfXtUWPbqapfJ1oVg4USIJb6P47y/view?usp=sharing
