The first set of three drawings are from the beginning of the semester. And I have learned a lot since than. Gesture drawings are actually my favorite compared to full out detailed drawings because they hit the bare essentials of human form. 3 minute poses are usually the right amount of time for me to get in just what I want. You can really tell a difference between my earlier gestures and my new gestures. My earlier gestures really have no solid form, they're just loosely drawn stick figures. My newer drawings start incorporating the ribcage and pelvis, plus they are also more refined and structured better. Just look at the difference.
EARLIER DRAWINGS
30 Second Gestures
RECENT GESTURESThese drawings are starting to get more developed and take more human shape, with a variety in line and line weight. These drawings incorporate more important parts such as the spine, the rib cage and the pelvis. My drawings also focus mainly on the main structure rather than the outlines of the form. I was particularly happy with the structure of the ribs and pelvis. With guidance from Amy I've been able to tighten up my proportions and location of the Ribs and Pelvis and how they relate to each other.

the one-minute pose here is the best--it is the one that relies most on long axis lines rather than outlines. it also communicates pretty well the feel of the pose.
see my comment on your long drawings about fluidity of line and moving from your shoulder.
