Emotion and Posture in Pose

These four images show how poses and body language in general can display the emotion of the one who is making them. tough the poses of the latter three drawings have their respective emotions written next to them, the poses themselves display the emotion clearly through their balance, along with the position of their limbs, whether or not the shoulders hang, and if the head droops or is held high. The pose that shows confidence clearly show bravado due to the arched back, high shoulder and head that looks into the distance. The Curiosity pose shows and almost child like curiosity, as the arms and hands in particular show almost nervousness. While these gesture drawing have some anatomical errors, they display the given emotion proficiently.

The first drawing in the set is supposed to show that the model is in thought, this is displayed through the resting of the head on the arm and the face implied to be looking at something. There is good foreshortening on the left thigh and there is balance is well portrayed in the pose.
