Anyone done these?
The 10/1/10 challenge.
You draw an image three times, each time with decreasing time limits.

10 minutes for your first.
1 minute for the second.
10 seconds for the third.

You get it.
So 11 minutes, 10 seconds, you can spare that, right?

Ill start.

(Im a lefty, so I went from right to left to avoid smudging too much)

Whats the point, you cant make anything good with 10 seconds. Hell, I'd say 1 minute is useless too, it may be only cool for really experienced artist who got faster naturally.

>Whats the point, you cant make anything good with 10 seconds.

Not OP, but that's not exactly the goal. It's an exercise, it forces you to prioritize what's absolutely necessary to capture your subject.

It's useful practice for if you're drawing a subject that might not be in the same place/pose 10 seconds later (like, say, an animal).

It's to break down the design and optimize it/get something new. It helps with you seeing your own decision making.

Originally Jake Parker made it and it was 4m:2m:1m:30s:15s:5s

That's how you know you never gonna make it.
Such excuses shouldn't be forgiven, as for even for mobile there's a wide range of apps that let's you fix your pictures.

Pretty fun challenge.

I'm a bit sceptical if the 1 min is not 2 min, though. I didn't set a timer and quickly forgot which minute I started at.

You sound like Jeremy Clarkson explaining why paddle shifters are shit.

But, aight. I'll bite.

The purpose of figure drawing is mainly learning how to see and eye-hand coordination.

Knowing how to observe objects are IMO the most important thing when it comes to drawing. If you don't know how to properly look at something you'll never be able to properly draw it. This includes measuring the subject, understanding the basic building blocks and lines of the subject, and understanding balance, movement and weight of the thing you draw, only by looking at it.
And how are you supposed to be able to draw if your hands don't move in the way your eyes tell them to? That's why you have these 10-30 seconds drawings. With these you're hardly supposed to look at the paper at all, but use the time you have to study the subject and let the hand copy what you see.

Gesture drawing is supposed to be with a live model, though. If you are talking about quickposes, or similar 2D gesture drawing, it's a completely different thing and should honestly be avoided if you're a beginner.

Everything is worthless given enough time. They don't call them fundies cause they're fun.
