Our Painted Lives Journey 1

Hiya folks, I was introduced recently by a friend to a youtube channel Our Painted Lives featuring the creative renderings of the ever inspiring duo Dani and Nicolas. Though online daily painting challenges are a dime a dozen online, the particular challenges Nicolas focuses on, reflect skills I've really been wanting to improve on in my own work for sometime.

5 and 10 Minute Painted Gestures

Gesture drawing has been a reliable foundational practice to build ones skills rapidly, and for good reason. Quick repetitive practice is well documented to accelerate improvement as one has a chance to learn from and make mistakes quickly.. When done right there is also a deeper connection conveyed in these gestures.. a living essence that is achieved due to the artist ‘feeling’ the pose rather than just seeing it. In these quick paint sketches I attempted to transpose this act of conveying the impulse rather than the position of the ‘pose’ too, as one does in gesture drawings.
