Response to More Gesture (or is it just blur?)

from Susan Daly (SLascaux@aol.com)
She looks like I felt the night before my wedding..... i think this conveys well the emotions prior to taking that big scary leap called marriage. In art school one makes literally thousands of gesture drawings. They are done quickly...in only seconds, the goal being to capture the essence of the expressive nature of what the model is doing. Not static poses mind you.... but poses that quickly change and are all about the movements our bodies make without our consciously thinking about it.... reaching for something....bending....walking with our own unique gait... or as this woman, expressing nervous excitment and a sense of "final freedom" of laugher, movement, flirtation etc....

yes! gesture captured well.
