UA-cam is the new education system. thanks for the info professor.
It indeed is
I am a self taught artist and over the years I just stumbled onto a few things that you pointed out in this video. But you have opened a whole new universe for me by sharing this valuable information. You are well schooled and I do appreciate your unselfishness in doing these videos. Thanks brother.
selflessness* not unselfishness
@@awetoot3593 American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, Fifth Edition: Noun 1. unselfishness - the quality of not putting yourself first but being willing to give your time or money or effort etc.;
Where did you self study?

hey harold parker, did your art/drawing improved?
chroma, saturation, intensity, colorfulness.. those are used interchangeably, but all mean slightly different things:
en.wikipedia(dot)org/wiki/Colorfulness
Interesting...
I knew it! yOU SHOULD'VE TOLD ME EARLIER
Oh, wait. Your comment was seven years ago. (pun)
You are the simplest and kindest art teacher I have seen . My art teacher didn't tell me about a single element . He didn't even say that they exist 😅
For all of the digital artists out there, chroma is usually labelled as saturation on drawing programs. You can almost always find the chroma (saturation) changer as a slider or as the line across the diagonal of the colour square where one side is 100% black and the other is the most vibrant shade of the colour. I hope this helps!

I have been an artist for 30 years and this is the first time I think I have finally gotten my head around exactly what edge means. I still struggle with value and edge and so few people seem to talk about how to know when to use which type of edge when, that I just kept trying to emulate without entirely understanding. Being self taught is so much more difficult. Thank you for making art education accessible to people like me who are poor and disabled, unable to likely ever get to a physical arr class in the future.
I'm working on watching your whole anatomy series, then I'm going ongo back and watch it again and do all the assignments. I figure it will stick better if I watch it more than once.
Thank you for existing.
How do i draw a gluteus maximum
So... Chroma is basically another term for saturation, right?
yes
Gary Lam Finally! This has confused me for so long. Thank you!
Really fuckin late comment BUT chroma translates to colour in Greek
Yup
Yes.
Stan you are the best teacher that I have seen in my 60 years of age, and about 55 years drawing (but not learning as now)
Yes, I agree!
Normally I don't do the comment thing, just press thumb or not, but when I'm watching this video, I have the feeling that must say something. Your are A wonderful teacher! Thanks ;)
Proko, this is incredible. There's no material such as this on UA-cam. Thank you.
This is golden for me, and I start to watch this videos because English isn't my native language. ❤ But now I can understand almost everything. Cool
I think you need to do "Blind contour Drawing" to improve your visual concentration. You can look it up, but its basically pick a subject and WITHOUT looking away or at your paper, follow the edges of the subject with your eye and let your pencil follow the same movements at a slow consistent speed changing to edges of other objects as you come across them..
In time your eye will become more sensitive to those edges and consequently, resulting shapes of light and shadow.
Finally a clear & simple explanation. Thank you so much!
I discovered you today on UTUBE. A real treat. You instructions are so clear and helpful that it is a pleasure listening to you even if you already know the topic. I already subscribed to your videos and I will watch all, hoping to see new ones in the future. Thank you and please keep up the good work. I think you are a great guy and teacher.
This is the best and most comprehensive lesson I ever learned
Engaging, inspiring, highly educational, no matter one's interest, education, ablity. My grandson is 5, has a fever today, he watched until he fell asleep. Thank you for this content, subscribed today.
yup! working on very long figure series now. In the mean time I'm releasing some random videos..
The quality of this is superb (don't get me wrong, others are great too)! The way the subject is broken down with clear explanations, and then plenty of well spaced repetition so information 'sticks' better in you mind. Good job!
There is a reason proko is mentioned among top online art tutorials and best in free art tutorials.. The quality of production and content speaks volume. Thank you for making it easier for self taught and cluless aspirants 🙏☺️
cross hatching is not just a thing to check off a list. Cross hatching requires extreme precision from your drawing hand. It takes a huge amount of time and muscle memory. You need to have control of the speed, translation(movement from side to side) as well as the amount of pressure your hand exerts. There are also a variety of ways to achieve hatching. Perhaps Stan can go over the various ways that it can be done. Hopefully he also provides to neat tips and tricks.
This is definitely one of the most valuable art lessons on youtube! Thanks so much for explaining everything so clearly
For years, I've struggled with color and this video breaks it down so perfectly. Thank you very much.
As an artist for 5 decades...@ in my humble opinion...Beginners may feel intimidated by ALL the technicle angles you share. Art is a reflection on many levels. Personal for each individual student or person. Its about " letting go" experimenting...having fun or whatever. BUT yes....learning some BASICs like Color theory, etc. comes in handy for painting, pastels or colored pencils. Just thot my input could HELP students to RELAX. NOT worrying about This or That UNTIL they've had some time to get loose, have some fun experimenting @ the chance get their feet wet in Art Expression. Hoping my humble opinion HELPs someone....along the path of creativity. Thanks for listening.
I'm very sincere in sharing my own thots @ want to also ThankYou for sharing yours.
Man, your channel has BLOSSOMED! Congratulations! What a fantastic job you’ve all done. Wow.❤️
Thank you Stan. I have taken countless classes and workshops and read many books. This single video is by far the best education I have seen. I have been bouncing around on your channel and discovered how a playlist works. Your drawing basics playlist is phenomenal. I will purchase everything you produce to support you work. It is the best I have found, ever.
Bro i began a character design online class, but with no foundation, like 3 months of no getting results, and after see and practice proko videos i just began to be able to paint and draw anything i want, better, a year ago i was so bless with your content, thank you
Stan, looks like the last comment was 6 years ago. Wow. I'm late to the party. Have painted and drawn since adolescence. I build as well. Coming back to this to update my rusty knowledge and lack of! LOL! This video has fewer views than others you've done. But it's one I will review many times although it won't help the algorithm. Will be using this to improve my drawing and desire to sketch my projects as I'm not to computer literate. LOL! Shapes forms and hues. Relating to grey scale and light and color. Gonna take a bit to get my aging head around and stick it there, LOL! Again late to the party but enjoying the vibes of your past trail blazing. Thanks!
Stan, I just got the portraits dvd. the demos are so great. so lucky to have someone doing this. thanks again ill be buying more soon
The way you explained the Loomis method to drawing the head, accompanied with the overlayed video effects helped me SO much. I am very excited for your figure drawing series, take your time!
Hey, I just want to say, thank you for all the great tutorials. I'm a practising artist (still an amateur, really), but your videos have been a big help. The friendly and lighthearted presentation really instills confidence.
Thanks for these great beginner tutorials! I had some formal art training at university over 20 years ago but ended up switching majors from fine art to social work. Anyhow after a back injury I haven't been able to work and have taken up arting while on disability. These have been a great refresher for me.
I appreciate how you broke this down. I have stumbled over this in my paintings and struggled to figure out why! Thanks
Thanks so much for this! I've been searching for color videos all day and yours is by far the best!
I rewatch this video every so often, it's always great to refresh your skills. Awesome video, Stan, thanks.
You convey this tutorial with great knowledge, clarity, expression and simplicity. An excellent, outstanding achievement from someone so young.
The best explanation about Color, Shape and Edge that I ever seen! Thank you! 🙏
Really appreciate the time you take putting these videos together. The effort really shows.
Thank you so much Stan, your ability to simplify a subject clearly and thoroughly is amazing. Really appreciate it!
Wow.. I’ve been waiting 40yrs for this.. buying that dvd 📀!!!
From time to time it's good to come back and check out this kind of videos, because they're full of useful material to work with and increase your knowledge.
Thanks so much, Proko! :)
Blessings!!
4:15 What a great and simple picture about the color properties!
I cannot even begin to thank you for this. I'm a self-taught artist, and I was going to skip this video because I thought I knew this stuff, but watched it anyway. Boy, am I glad I did. I've been investing some time into really nailing the basics of drawing lately, and this video has been so extremely helpful. It really has helped me see the world more in terms of an artist, and really has helped me improve so much already. Thank you Proko.
This video specifically was so helpful... It made me set a vision when I'm sketching.... Which I did not have before... Thank you proko
I am finally getting it. Thank you for explaining in such a simple way. I had a lightbulb moment. Blessings!
I soooo love this lesson! Has to be my favorite!! You break it down to the basices. I love the tables comparison!! YOU DA' MANNNN!!
Thanks for this. Being self-taught, I often overlook art theory in favour of stuff I can physically do. But this helped, I might have to re-watch and take some notes!
excellent. now we need the full version on color theory.
Stan.. This is the best tutorial video I have ever seen.. This 12 minutes really packed with tonnes of knowledge.. This clarified a lot of doubts for me.. Hats off and thanks a lot for sharing!!
Hey, Stan. Thank you so much for giving back to the community and providing these videos. I have a neurological disorder that's called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy that has left me disabled for the past 17 years. It's been difficult to have anything to look forward to on a daily basis. I struggled to find a purpose but now thanks to your videos, I struck gold! Even though finances are extremely tight on a fixed income, I'm going to save every last cent I have to purchase your portrait drawing DVD (I'd love to get the entire course but that might take longer than my lifespan (haha). I can't thank you enough for what you've done for me psychologically, physically, and spiritually. Much appreciated and much love to you, my friend. God bless!
i have been watching your videos for sometimes though havent started drawing yet or where to start this video was so well articulated i couldnt help appreciating how wonderful teacher u r .while there r many artists but hardly good teachers and these r two different skills .
This is one of the best channel …. So knowledgeable
Possibly your best video yet. Very clear and informative. I feel like you've instilled a little more confidence in me by imparting some knowledge.
This is the best explanation of this I have ever watched (or read). Thank you so much. You are an excellent teacher and thinker.
thank you proko, my teacher in paiting class was trying to teach us values chroma and hues but I felt no one understood since she never mentioned this concepts and how to apply them. youre a life saver!!
brilliant channel. There are alot of tutorial videos out there, but rarely touch upon fundamentals and theory. a strong understanding of the basics really helps in a successful drawing/painting. cheers and more power.
Again thank you so much for a brilliant, informative lesson. Years and years after attempting to learn art in high school and failing, you made it so clear and concise so quickly. p.s. the music is fine! I didn't even notice it :)
Appreciate your kindness and Professionality
Vim de 2020 pra dizer que esta é a aula mais intuitiva e didática que eu já vi sobre o assunto. Muito obrigado!
I am truly thankful for what you do. teaching the fundamental concepts is invaluable to me. you are the best subscription I have!
Thank you. You have made this very abstract idea very clear. Teaching elements of art is definitely challenging. Thank you again.
Thank you very much, you have simplified everything for me. Your lessons are meaningful to me.
Just getting into drawing. Your videos are priceless!! Thank you.
You make it all so clear and simple. I'm so glad my friend shared this video. :)
Instant favorite!
Thank you for this. I now understand colour and why you need layers and how to use those layers a bit better. Aspiring artist who had very little technical / theoretical training in school and is trying to develop her skills. This is extremely helpful.
I thank you very much for this great class, I would never have believed that a model had so many divisions in itself.
«The four elements their alternate worlds, my eyes attentive to this knowledge.
Again I find myself looking for the moment, to shape each canvas your entire universe »
All these lessons have been so helpful. Thank you!
mind blown after simplifying the concepts. thank you!
Stunning this course, a real masterclass, thank you !
Great video, its well put together and professional, not like the other videos I just watched, it taught me a lot since no one ever explained it so great and well before. Thanks, please keep teaching us, we need it.
I love your videos Proko. Keep going with your fabulous contribution :)
Thank you so much for sharing what you've learned! It's such a blessing!
Sooo good. I love how you teach things in some simple way.
This is a G-R-E-A-T video. Sharing on FB with all my artist friends! I love your videos- you explain things so much better than I ever could.
Mo
Marvelous video! i'm self-taught and i'm starting to draw digital and i've realised its more harder than traditional (at least for me). Instantly subscribed after the video! clear explanation and entertaining video. Best regards to you, sir!
Excellent job - using this consistently with my students
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.
I can't imagine any better explanation of these things.
Great video as usual! Thanks a lot for the commitment of time you put into helping out aspirering artists! It´s very appreciated!
What did you just open my mind into omfg thank you master i love you
Great video. Sums up many books. I learnt something something new about edges today.
Very nicely put and explained! Love your videos.
hi, stan! this one was a really important one for me, really without it, I'll be completely lost nowadays in my art studios.
Thank you, friend! You are a gifted teacher! :)
wow you are a very good tutor! Definitely recommending you to anyone!
Man, you just summarize my 4 years in the Art School. If I only had seen this video before.

thanks Proko, you' re amazing as usual. Greetings from Italy.
Loved it. I am starting to teach beginner intermediate lessons for my neighborhood. Useful video, thanks
Thank you for this lesson. I have learned a lot. I do really want to improve my skill and become better. This is a big help for me as a beginner. I am really confused about shading, and highlights. Now that I learned what are the fundamentals im good to go to try a project.
Wow 😮 nice and #calm #voice explaining the techniques. I am returning to #drawing after many years of not doing it Thank you so mucho.
Thanks for the great information. You deliver the basics of art with a nice smile and a friendly face :)
Incredible video to help me better understanding drawing! Thanks
Love that colour wheel.
Thank you so much. This channel has helped me very much.
Great video! So many illustrators, graphic designers and artists these days simply don't know how to look.
you are a really really good teacher man...

A great lesson professionally presented.
