You're a gem Dianne. Anytime I don't get something quite well, I KNOW I can learn it from you. Thank you :)

My teacher at the arts center here "taught" gesture drawing but never explained it this way. I think it might have been that she explained it in light and flowy "artsy" terms, that I simply did not understand, and without actually discussing how it is done. This is the first time I've been able to catch on to what gesture drawing IS and how to do it. This was extremely helpful. Thank you, Dianne.
