found this video today. It is like you said int he first part. it completley changed me! I always wanted to draw Disney style, to add more rhythm to my drawings but i never understood how to do it. Thank you so much for this video. I will buy the books asap!!!

[@AlejandroLopez-fp8qc]

Nice, gesture is movement, force is masses colliding, stacking one another, thank u

[@NemoNameless0]

this method has just blown my mind I never considered it like this! thank you!

[@rafaelojeda2777]

Watching you draw over and over to learn as much as i can

[@elsagrace3893]

I so appreciate these force vids. I’m super excited to return to live model figure drawing sessions and just practice force. I saw Glen Vilpu draw like this and it was beautiful but he explained nothing to my my understanding. Thank you for something good to practice towards my goal of beautiful (vitality full) art. I will tree this with trees also. Trees are a living thing and their growth responds to gravity and light so the force and opposing the force must be there too. Happy New Year, Mike.

if anyone is interested i highly recommend his books, they have taught me a ton

[@deebonash1495]

Mike is the man. Wow

[@madmanzila]

Draw a BONNer :P awesome videos thank you for these ... you are awesome ,..

[@wisemonkeys4511]

amazing!

[@ytsejam58]

5:00 The last side of that page looks a LOT like what I randomly doodle in my notebook when I'm bored as heck during class. I was doing all of this subconciously and I never even knew

[@michaelgta6702]

Can we draw cross contour around those line? So we can see better where those line going?

[@drawinfo99]

Very nice video 👌👌♥️👍

[@studiot7480]

I'm a fan

[@Drawing4Justice]

Very cool

[@heiah]

Does directional force always lead to the arch(merging into applied force) or can it also merge with other directional forces /lines? When is a rhythm considered broken?

[@samiraology]

This feels like physics class all over again.

[@ytsejam58]

I had skiing in my when looking at that too.

[@ashalyesu]

wow!!!!!!!!!

[@amazingcraftclasses1685]

How can I read and practice this book without book

[@amazingcraftclasses1685]

Which use pencil sir.tell me plc

[@frankiecardona1656]

he draws like glen kean

[@dicloniusN35]

but not all poses has this forses. what about static almost symmetrical poses?

[@othmaneeljacfi3747]

what you can do to feel the force(bad joke X'D) is to stand and do the pose your self, if it's not a dynamic pose, stand and do it it's makes it easier to spot the flow of it

[@elsagrace3893]

dicloniusN35 you mean like a building? A square building, no Arches?

[@wifuu4941]

theirs always exceptions to every rule, this is a tool to help you understand what your seeing and get an idea across, but who wants to draw dry static symmetrical poses? thats been boring since the greeks discovered contrapposto.

[@andrearepetto217]

Am I the only one who doesn't understand how he came up with that line trajectory? I've tried practicing this and the words he used in the video didn't help me "get" what he was doing

[@elsagrace3893]

Study some Yoga to get the feeling. Go to some classes. You will feel it. The change of force as you move and position your body. You can’t understand it if you never experienced it. The screen is a great teacher but only if you have sensory info from real life.

[@lauravenables100]

Draw with your eyes closed

[@israrmalik4336]

besr best best

[@daytonagreg8765]

He ought to start with a basic, simple “example” and expand on that. Anyone know of a channel that explains this idea a little more quickly? It just seems like a ton of words going nowhere. Is it so complicated that there is no simple example, say one arm flexing? I’m gonna keep going bc I do want to know if this is useful and why. Ok, two videos now, and he still makes no sense. I have a doctorate in Physics and I don’t get it unless when he says FORCE he really means “flow”. Is that it?

[@summersaidgoodbye7340]

it's been 1yr, what's going on now with ur drawing?

[@Socrates...]

Vilppu describes this much better

[@elsagrace3893]

Socrates No he doesn’t. I watched his vid. His gestures are absolutely amazing looking but not enough explanation of how and why. No physics at all.

[@elsagrace3893]

Socrates I’d love to know where Vilppu describes it better.

[@lauravenables100]

Disagree profoundly

[@katesill1987]

:-)

[@raarandee]

but I have not ice-skated my whole life

[@lauravenables100]

You imagine.

[@Socrates...]

a repackaged gesture drawing

[@AlphaDaArtist]

I can tell you really like this guy.

[@elsagrace3893]

Socrates uh, you mad because you can’t get it? This is fabulously explained with so much more detail and interest than any other gesture drawing video. I believe that you have become very comfortable in the snooty and bored individual role. You feel great there. Good luck with that role 😂
