Useful Resources for Gesture Drawings

updated: 10/04/2014

Thankfully there are many resources that you can use to help you improve the quality and feel of your gesture drawings.  You can sketch people and animals from TV.  Programs recomended are sports and animal/nature programs.  You can even use VIMEO and Youtube.

If you are new to Gesture drawings and don't know where to start see Proko TV below.  I found the program informative and useful.  I've included all three series below.


Series One:  How to Draw Gesture





Series Two: How to Draw Gesture - Step by Step






Series Three: Gesture Drawing Examples - 2 minute Poses
