A Gesture drawing takes seconds to make, but years of practice to do well. It requires that you draw beyond what you think you see and do it with speed, accuracy, and compassion all at once. Gesture drawings capture energy, spirit, action, and expression rather than the likeness of a person. Join Barbara for a discussion on what she believes Gesture Drawing to be about, view examples, and watch a video of her making Gesture drawings, too.
