Welcome back to my fourth blog post! In this post I will be
talking about gestural drawing which is a type of drawing you speed through,
like a doodle (Finmark 68). This drawing has been the easiest for me so far
because it requires the least amount of work than the other drawings I have
done. This drawing is mainly used if you have a lot going on in your drawing,
such as people walking in the background. You don’t have time to add every
single detail to an individual person so sometimes artists use gestural
drawing. In Learn Drawing Quickly, the author says “Gestural drawing is a way
of speeding up as you can’t focus on details, so it’s useful for making rough sketches
of groups of people” (Finmark 68).

| One example of how you can sketch a gestural drawing |
Gestural drawings are very simple as you can see. You just
draw the outline of the object you want in your drawing, without adding much
detail and you’re already there.
What do you guys think? Have you ever used gestural drawings
but never realized it until now?
Angela, to answer your question i have actually done a gestural drawing. But i did it awhile ago, but i didn't realize it until now. Thank you
