Watching him draw his son is the most adorable thing in the world

[IanVuittonDon]

So far, Proko is one of the only artists I've seen that will describe a method so simply and when you try it yourself, it's actually relatively simple. Thanks so much for the help with these videos!

I can't help it.He is my son.

BRAND new artist here and this method is SO cool. I've been following along w a sketchbook, and while I only have faceless models at a variety of angles, there is so much depth in each quick sketch I'm blown away. Never thought I could draw a convincing perspective, but here I am! Still have lots to learn but this was a really fun way to learn something that seems really practical.

This is helpful. Mostly with getting rid of same face syndrome

How cute his son is
I can't, my heart melted when he smiled when he saw the photo of his son

[padeltiku]

I bet Proko was smiling the whole time he was drawing his son

This lesson is timeless a year later ... 10 years from now. Really enjoy your methodology. I’m using this in my drawing and I can already see the difference. It’s improves upon what I knew.

I followed along with a small sketch pad and I can’t believe how much the facial structure in my drawings has improved… Since the planes of the face are so much easier to see in this method, colouring and shading is going to be so much easier too! I haven’t drawn in a while but this has given me the burst of motivation I needed. Thank you so much!

I’m a true beginner, and never even heard of the Loomis Head before your videos. I’ve always shied away from any kind of figure drawing because I felt it was too hard, and for “true artists” with actual talent. I decided to finally work on learning the head and face for now (to keep me busy over the long winter ahead) and really appreciate the detail you’ve gone into with your videos. I’m the kind of person who needs to know all the “technical details” and “correct way” of doing things before I can begin to improvise from that. I’d love to know what the next steps are for people like me from here — practice yes, but starting with what?

[TheEnderFlash]

I've even managed to adapt the Loomis method to the animal heads so it's extremely versatile.

[OhWaker]

Dang, Proko roasting celebrities left and right in this video

[Crown-]

Man god will bless you for bringing us mortals a new video daily. Thanks!

[truthfilter]

i'm convinced that the loomis method is just a shortcut for already highly skilled artists

[chadestioco]

Self-taught artist here. I've studied Loomis a bit for a while now, even adapted his technique into something I find "more natural". But I gotta say, seeing someone else (and a much better artist than me at that) apply Loomis' methods is really (even literally) eye-opening! Thanks for all these videos! :)

[Bubleone]

I followed you step by step on this one, and I was amazed.. i have most times had children look too old... this has given me so much insight, thank you for sharing your knowledge, I really appreciate it!!

[omniscientmoon]

I can't thank you enough for making these videos. I've started teaching independent art classes, and this is helping me figure out how to explain these techniques. Thank you so much!! I did take a couple of his books out from the library. I'm going to study them as well, but your videos introduced me to him, so thank you again!!

[giodoodles]

9:20 So much unintentional shade thrown at Tom Hanks 🤣

[MurasakiRocker]

As a sufferer of "same face syndrome", this is extremely helpful! Thanks for the vid!

[blackswandoll]

Proko drawing his son is so wholesome and sweet. That smile! 🥺
