I like this front and back view gesture drawing! The figures have volume; there’s a good flow of light and shadow. Even composition is interesting. I always try to balance figures on the page, but balance doesn’t always mean equality. I like how these two figures are on different levels. This “off-balance” creates a relationship between these two figures. To improve it, more work can be done around the torso and arms, but overall it’s a good gesture reference. I’m focusing on geometric abstract series right now, but at some point I want to do a figure painting series. These would definitely make that.
