Part 2
In this video lesson, we are excited to share with you a past online workshop with master artist, Steve Huston. In this two day workshop, Steve utilizes his thorough teaching style to help you build a basic skill set in figure drawing. This is the second part of the workshop, in which Steve discusses and demonstrates the ideal balance and stability of a figure’s gesture, explains the importance of connecting a series of gestures to guide the viewer’s eye, describes the visual components of gesture and structure, and shows that modifying and building onto a gesture can sometimes change the drawing altogether.
