The article reminded of a class I had at Art Center with Ward Kimball in the 70's. Kimball was amazing teaching ACTION ANALYSIS. He had us use a pegbar with our drawing - to capture the key poses of the model. Ward also stressed that we push the line of action (as we did with animation poses) to increase the dynamic action within a pose. I look back now and know how very fortunate I was. Thanks for the article.
