Thanks for the insights! I just have a question; what exactly do you mean by "Make drawings of what you find because it will imprint the information on you better"? Do you mean of anything I find interesting or?

Hello Line of Action,

I've been doing the figure study practices on and off for roughly a month, most often with the 30-minute class mode or in 1-minute/2-minute intervals. I tend to focus on shape and fluidity by emphasizing the clavicle + sternocleidomastoid, and joints in the arms + legs. While I think I have a better understanding about the human shape, proportions are still an issue (legs tend to be too short compared to the upper half).

I've tried three different methods; the first is using less lines, therefore being more confident in my strokes but personally feels much more rigid, second is sketching stick figures before drawing, and lastly just drawing.

Stick figures + studies (2 min total; 1 min for stick figure, 1 min for drawing): https://imgur.com/gallery/gi46PvI

What are some ways I can move forward in drawing more fluid poses? Is my way of emphasizing certain joints and muscles a good way to practice? Thanks!
