The best way to describe a gesture is how the body physically moves to make that gesture. Here's a few examples:

Telling someone to come here

He swept his hand toward his body.

Flashing the okay sign

He put his forefinger to his thumb forming an o and raised his other three fingers.

Giving thumbs up

He turned his hand, clenched his fingers toward his palm, and pointed his thumb
skyward.
