Figure Drawing Warm Up
Figure drawing warm ups made simple
A warm up doesn't need to be long or elaborate. It just needs to get your hand moving.
Figure drawing warm ups are short, timed drawing sessions meant to loosen up before longer work. They help reduce stiffness, quiet hesitation, and ease the transition from not drawing to drawing.
Pose Library exists for this exact moment.
Instead of deciding what to draw or watching the clock, you can run a short session of timed poses and focus on movement and flow. The drawings don't need to be good. They don't need to be saved. They only need to happen.
Many artists use warm ups:
- before a longer drawing or illustration session
- to reset after time away from drawing
- when they only have a few minutes
If you have 5-10 minutes and something to draw with, that's enough.
