![]() ![]() Whether from life or from imagination, the first mark made in most figure drawings is the line of action. ![]() You can start by thinking of the line of action as an imaginary line that runs down the spine. It is meant as the simplest possible description of a figure's main curve and force. ![]() The more curve you put into that line, the more attitude, force and/or movement the image will communicate. Some artists make two lines of action - one for the body, and one for the arms.Įventually, you should be able to identify and draw the line of action within five seconds of seeing a pose for the first time. However, if this is your first time doing this exercise, allow yourself up to 30 seconds to examine a pose and make a decision about what shape its line of action might be. Try to make curves, not S-shapes or squiggles. ![]()
