Continuing with the “Gesture Drawing with Alex Woo” class, Lesson 4 focuses on Space.
- There are about a dozen way to convey depth and space into our drawings: Linear Perspective, Overlaps, Light & Shadow, Atmospheric Perspective, etc. These are called “Depth Cues”.

- Alex stresses the importance of :
- Adhering to a time limit of 1 minute per drawing – no extra editing or line polishing.
- Try out drawing with your non-dominant hand (left, in my case).
- Below is assignment from week 4:
