These are sketches from my figure drawing class. The first two are schematic sketches which focus on the parts of the body geometrically. This is done using the side of a conte crayon.
This is a gesture sketch of a female. A gesture sketch is usually done quickly keeping continuous contact of the charcoal on the paper. This teaches the artist to relate/empathize with the model and become kinesthetic with the model, capturing the movement and weight distribution of the figure. It also is a way to practice seeing the figure as a whole and is a technique used to practice filling the whole paper with the figure.
