I have been drawing gestures for years and never really settled on a “best map” for the body. Anyone have examples for how they like to draw the body?

EDIT: if you are reading this get the morpho books. It’s an amazing resource.

    I’m also a beginner when it comes to gesture, but I like to focus on the alignment of the shoulders and the hips to create balance and movement when drawing the human figure.

    When it comes to drawing the forms of the body, I just try to focus on simple 3D forms. For example, simplifying the arms and legs to cylinders.
