In week two, NMA master draftsman Glenn Vilppu goes more in-depth into gesture drawing. You will learn how to capture the feeling and movement of the pose using gestures. Glen shows how the fundamentals of gesture and structure apply equally from medium to medium. You will develop an understanding of how the old masters used gestures to compose their masterpieces.
Throughout this course, you’ll have access to the NMA community for feedback and critiques to improve your work as you progress.
