To clarify an earlier question. An anon provided this youtube video as an example of gesture exercises:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpejM-T9YG0

But I'm having a hard time identifying how this is actually applying the concepts the instructions gave for how to use gesture. Pic related is an example, I can't yet see where or how the video uses this at all. I can sort of see how asymmetry could be used in an abstract way by skewing the edges of a 3D object (it would probably be easier to see if I could see his model while he draws), but even that I don't really know how to apply in my own exercises.

So, I'm hesitant to try to mimic the technique of the video when I don't really know what he is doing, and I feel like I'm not producing the desired results when I follow my interpretation of the written directions.
