Power Up Your Ellipse Practice

Power up your ellipse practice! While drawing with my son, I realized that Mario mushrooms were actually a pretty great way to practice ellipses and a little more intentional than just #drawing a page full of random ones.

Give it a try in my Drawings Basics Course!

This rules lol. I'm definitely gonna try this before my next figure drawing practice.

Me who just go right to the drawing without warming up and end up with wobbly lines : oh so thats how to do it

[gobuns]

_proko_ finally doing beginner's course is the best thing ever.

That's actually a fantastic warmup idea. I always drew just shapes in general. Thank you sir

[sockchen]

This exercise is pure love.
And full of neardiness.
Thank you so much sensei

This makes me appreciate the art style and character designs of Super Mario Bros even more. Nintendo and Myiamoto really put a lot of thought into Mario didn’t they? No matter how simple the characters may appear, almost anyone could recognize the silhouette of an item or character. I’m more of an intermediate, that’s learned the basics of drawing and elements/principles of art, but this is a much appreciated refresher course!

it's been a while (more than 10 years? lol) since I last practiced drawing and watched proko and found this again while scrolling. Definitely gonna try this and think I'm gonna need oil and heavy push to crank my old artistically unused hand, lol. Good to know the channel is still going more alive than ever. Cheers!

Genius warmup exercise. I did it for like 20 minutes and let me tell you I can already feel more confidence and quality in my elipse drawings

[emericolomibaoiii]

the more you said "ellipse" i feel an ache in my heart and remember the day when i have to learn my precalculus

[CarlytheQueenofChaos]

I practice by drawing either humans that are only ellipses, only squares or only triangles.

Doing mushrooms has always helped with creativity. These mushrooms are cute. I love these exercises, they make art fun. Thank you 💕🍄💕❤️🥰💞💕💗💓💌💝💖

[depressoespresso]

drawing cute little mushrooms as a warm-up? YES ABSOLUTELY I WILL YES

[kenta]

I genuinely hope that shorts will be available to save in "saved" folders like regular yt vids

[LGDUDE]

I saved this so long ago, and i just realized this was why i started practicing ellipse thank you

[Yuuki-jpob]

There's- there's drawing warmups? How have i not heard of this

[Validechos]

ooooh thanks! I like making my warm ups fun

[penguinista]

Brilliant! That requires great precision to do right.

[Abc-mupo]

thank you so much...

please could we get more drawing exercise practices🙂...

[MerlinCross]

I do like stuff like this. One of the biggest problems I have is equating the 'practice' with 'thing being drawn'. Usually I just do atoms but this looks more up my mental alley.

[martag]

I love this tip, it's super fun. Sometimes I'll warm up by drawing simple lamps! Lots of ellipses there as well.
