This is my directed study on the topic of human movement. I picked this set of sketches because there is a good difference of the poses. Top-left one is a person stretching his back and his legs, this can be noticed by the slight bend at the lower part of the back and also the foot placed in front of the other. Also, the foot in front is touching the ground only with the heel which suggests that there is movement in that foot.
Second from left on the top row is a person in a static position. With his hands in his pockets and his right foot slightly in front of the other and on top of a small obstacle.
Third one is a person moving something towards his face. The relaxed pose of the body and the second hand at the level of the belly suggest that he is eating while standing up.
Rightmost on the top - the hand further back, pointing up suggests that the person is jumping. Also, the foot further back appears to be higher than the other one, which also is a sign of jumping. However, this difference could easily be mistaken for perspective because most of the foot on the back is obscured and unclear, hiding the angle of its knee.
First on the bottom is again a static pose with a person leaning at a wall. The dominating action in this case was the person working with the object in his hands, but it is in to small scale to be shown in a sketch like the one used.
Middle on the bottom seems like a person that is either pretending to ride a bike, or actually riding a bike. This is can be assumed by the fact the hands are on the same level and the feet are both bended at the knees, but are not next to each other. Still, the pose could be mistaken to be of a person standing firmly on the ground with his knees bended(this is why the sketch goes a bit towards the "pretending to ride a bike" pose).
At the bottom right is a sketch of a person obviously sitting on something. He can't be leaning only on his back and still have his legs so far in front because this would be a very uncomfortable pose. Again, a mostly static pose with the main movement being the hand going towards the face. With the second hand at the level of the belly, the pose suggests that the person is eating. This is most likely not on a chair, but on something higher, shows the steep angle of the hips.
