Your gestures look really nice. I recommended this book in another post today, but you might check out "Anatomy for Artists: Drawing Form & Pose: The ultimate guide to drawing anatomy in perspective and pose with tomfoxdraws." Long title, great book.

If you're interested in improving line quality, I suggest checking out www.drawabox.com and drawing in pen. It can be pretty heart-stopping at first, but I kind if weened myself off pencils by using Frixion erasable pens to start. Chommang on YouTube is also a good artist to follow. He does quick figure drawing with a focus on line quality.

You might be interested in a book by Tom Fox called "Anatomy for Artists: Drawing Form & Pose: The ultimate guide to drawing anatomy in perspective and pose with tomfoxdraws."

I'm down for this. @sarbearstare on insta

I would start with the skeleton and get very comfortable with the proportions of the shin bones to the femur and the forearm bones to the humerus, and then hips and ribcage, and then the skull. Then hands and feet. (The skull, the hands, and the feet are the most complicated parts of the body.) Once you have this, then I'd move on to learning muscle groups. When you start learning the muscle groups, make sure to note them as you're drawing people and see how they look when they're contracted or relaxed. It might also help to notice the muscles on your own body to identify their range of motion. This will help you identify when a pose looks out of wack, but you can't put your finger on why. Good luck!

Habit #1: It's better to do 10 minutes a day than an hour a couple of times and then go on a lengthy break. There is no habit that will get you further in art than developing a consistent daily practice.

Habit #2: develop a consistent, daily practice that is long enough to gain skills but short enough to avoid burnout. If your goals are too steep to actually accomplish, you're going to quit.

Habit #3: CONSISTENCY IS KEY.

(Yeah, they're all the same habit, but it's that important.)

Your poses look fine for someone who has only done gesture drawing a few times. They look the way they do because it looks like you've got some holes in your understanding of anatomy. I wouldn't go longer than 5 minutes on a sketch at this point. Right now, you're just trying to get through the first 1000 lousy drawings so you can cultivate good practice habits and look at lots and lots of anatomy.

This guy on deviantart has only been drawing for about 2 years, and he's awesome now, but he started out fairly bad at drawing. This is a great example of what a consistent and focused practice can do for someone. https://www.deviantart.com/vagabondof
