- In this exercise I used manly brushes (and a little bit of pen,) because there is a lovely flow about brushes (suggestive of movement), and the fluctuation of line you can get with the application of pressure is what I wanted.

I may have got a little carried away with the last three drawings, and they don't really have much movement in them, but possibly a bit of energy.
I think, in the early parts of the drawing, it is important to establish the main thrust of the pose, break it down into a very simple shape.
another thing I was thinking about, was opposing curves, by having opposing curves in a drawing, not only does it keep the viewers eye looking at the picture (working almost like a pinball machine,) but it creates a natural flow and energy, I think.
And lastly I became conscious of the importance of exaggeration.
