Instead of outlining an image in simple lines, gesture drawings are full of active lines going in any direction that the artists chooses to use to convey the emotion they feel in the image. Describing the shapes is less important in gesture drawing than showing the action and dynamics.
In this drawing, we can see the crazy use of curvy and zig-zagging lines going all over the place shows the stress and anxiety of the five men being portrayed. The men are scared and the jittery lines they are covered in make the viewer feel their terror.
