To study an image, your first step must be to
break down to simple shapes. With respect to drawing quick freehand
motions of gestural drawings have always been my favorite. Most formal
art training will lead you through a series of quick freehand gestural
exercises. To me there is something very free about the quick and almost
random movements that is unique to the artist who draws it. Although
the following two images are not gestural, or drawn from any figment of
real life...I do like the way in which the simple shapes as they have
bleed through the page. When doing so it brings a very cartoon-esk
feeling to the sketch, which is also another one of my more favorite
styles with art.
