Notes taken while reading Walt's gesture drawing stuff

1. Emotion
2. Solid drawing
3. Why does he/she do it?
4. Go for the truth
5. Those who are not hunters do not see these things (same with skateboarding)
6. Sketch always
7. Take notes
8. Differentiate your lines
9. Ignore details; concentrate on gesture and proportion -> simplify!
10. See and draw in 3D
11. Get a strong first impression
12. Get the feeling
13. Draw with a purpose
14. Search
15. Angles and tension
16. First sketch the whole action
17. Weight
18. Push the gesture
19. Stick to the theme
20. Hands, feet and eyes (aye aye capt'n, piratestyle!)
21. Avoid lines that don't describe anything
22. Extremes

Good times!
