Done as part of a 30 minute class.
My current goal is: Better understand human anatomy, so I can render imagined poses
I'm trying to think while drawing which is something I rarely do, I always get lost in my drawing process. I practiced about 40 minutes drawing feet before this, I hope there is a somewhat improvement. I feel the arms are weak and will work on it. Another thing is that it's like my logical brain is shut outdoors when drawing, and when I try to think I lose my trail and start making bad marks, any suggestions on how to improve this? Thanks a bunch! :3

Nicest job on your articulation of anatomy, spaces, and forces of the figure, particularly your nudest figure. I think that your perceptions are very self-aware, even if you're the most intuitive at your mistakes that you needed and wanted to correct and redo in your future drawings, but I feel that, as you put it, your forces of your arm gestures all seem a bit far too weakest tier to me. How would you like to free up but animate your arm gestures and spaces even most with 62 more minutes of 30 second arms and hands and legs, and feet drawings? (124 loosest gesture sketches of a variety of hands and feet)
As a result, if you combine gesture, and like velloria said, the teachings of Betty Edwards, thru her books called, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, and Drawing on the Artist Within. The logical arguement behind these books is because, in my humble opinion, these books all have helped me out in my art skills and observational prowess in general and specifically. If there are two things you could and should take away from them, is that you can and shall, and will warm yourself up to the drawing exercises featured in the book, and the text leading up to them. But believe me, they've made me the most strongest in terms of my observational but objective drawing and arts. My hat's off to you.

That “shut off your brain” feeling is very natural and many artists strive to achieve and stay in that zone! So don’t fight it! I’m sure my science is outdated but I think it’s your visual/non-verbal brain taking over if that makes sense. It’s an old book but “Drawing on the Right side of the brain” is an amazing book about that, really helped me and my art!
for this particular drawing I’d say it’s great for ten min- just try to mentally kick yourself when you’re spending too long rendering the torso/face, and try to give the arms/legs some more love. Sometimes I force myself to render them to a good level before I move onto the “reward” of working on the parts I like more. Hopefully that helps, but definitely check that book out if you can !
