Gesturo · Figure drawing & life drawing app

Figure drawing is the practice of drawing the human form from life or photo references. It develops your understanding of anatomy, proportion and gesture. Short timed studies (30 seconds to 10 minutes) train you to capture the line of action quickly, which is the foundation of strong figure work.

Gesturo is a native app (not just a website) with exclusive studio-shot pose references, a built-in timer, favorites, an animation mode and an artist community. As a Line of Action alternative, it offers a curated catalog, offline use and a daily figure drawing session designed to keep you consistent.

Figure drawing is the broader practice of drawing the human form, often with longer studies focused on proportion and anatomy. Gesture drawing is a subset: very short timed sketches (30 seconds to 2 minutes) that capture the line of action, movement and energy of a pose. Gesturo supports both, from 30-second gestures to 10-minute studies.
