Found some time to go back to some life drawing recently (still V. rusty):
Check out Glenn Vilppu for some amazing drawing tips from an absolute master. I learnt 3 super valuable tips from his drawing demo which i'll link below. The tips concern hand movements as one tries to define the form and the gesture of the figure (16mins 30secs into the video) which are:
- Draw with the flow
- Go over the surface and around the form
- Contain the form
By doing this we get a very deliberate 3 dimensional drawing. Here's the vid which I highly recommend watching the whole thing:
Bear in mind there's no rules for life drawing but sometimes tips like these can really help, and of course nothing beats practice! Hope this helps!
