43 - Anticipated Motion

Anticipated Motion is one of the major ideas in art. Because of our memories and past experiences, we recognize, temporary and unsteady positions in the body. At this point the eye and mind realizes that a change is coming.


This splash page for the comic Ultimates 2 shows many examples of anticipated motion. The poses in the individuals seem uncomfortable and in the middle of action. Therefore, our mind will finish the motion; the running, the jumping, the fighting.
