added comment inDemo - Dynamic Shapes from Reference

I'm not sure what it is, but sometimes I don't "see" the gesture that Stan is trying to indicate. And what normally looks like a basic straight line for the gesture, Stan sort of just...makes it S shaped anyways, because that's more interesting. Like the spine on the last drawing, it's head or top portion of the body is going straight for me, but Stan made it an S shape

Gesture is mostly about energy and movement. So although a straight line can be part of a gesture, you’re often looking for more flowy lines. In your example the animal is moving away from us and in doing so it’s shifting its weight to the right. Making the weight or energy move that way. So the gesture is not a representation of the spine but of the movement.
