Thank you. This is very helpful, and something I will be focusing on with my landscape painting.I can see these things would also be important there as well. I paint kneeling and find this is a natural way to correct imbalance with posture. Posture is very important once one realizes that Chinese painting and calligraphy are actually done with the whole body, and, of course, the completely focused mind and spirit.
I saw the kneeling posture. This posture is still used today in Japan.

Kneeling or sitting on mat were also used in ancient China. Today, sitting is usually better.

Thanks. I feel much comfortable sitting than kneeling anyhow.

The postures are often neglected today and many have used the less ergonomical postures than they used to be.

Good collections of posture but are not personal
