Finally got my 200hr certificate on Quickposes.com. Have stopped posting my 60 1 minute gesture drawings here (they're on Veil's Art Castle Discord). I've restarted and am currently on a 115 day streak. Day 1 vs Day 203 included. #art #practice #gesture #drawings #gesturedrawings #progress

The advanced certificate is for 200 hours, the next is expert at 500 hours. Quickposes.com only counts 60 minutes of work toward your goal a day. I've finished 207 days, but some of them were at weird times and my progress wasn't counted.

Added some additional life drawings to my E**y store (Lincoln bio). The sale on all original work in there has been extended and expanded to include some discontinued stickers and prints. Thanks for looking 🙂 #figuredrawings #lifedrawings #nudeart #art #figurativeart #gesturedrawings #drawings

Watching those "streamers react to" videos is actually a great way to practice drawing dramatic facial expressions! This was from "Not Like Us" :p

I've decided everyday at 2 in the afternoon, if I'm able, to do 10 gesture drawings. #art #gesturedrawings #charcoal #sketches

Pixie

@pixieguts.bsky.social

on today's episode of 'pixie takes on a challenge', I've started doing 60 1-min gesture drawings /day. the idea is to eventually build on this with anatomy study etc.

it's supposed to be a 6 month thing, so I'll just share my fave #GestureDrawings from each day after today!

days 1&2:

#ArtStudy

sketchbook page with a variety of very rough, loose gesture drawings

Now this is much better. Could still use some improvement but the progress is very noticeable. It's mostly cause I used shapes for muscle patterns; gotta remember the shapes!
