Proko Basic Drawing Better Jun 2026

Use "rubber band" lines around the arms and legs to show which way they are facing.

So, what are Proko's Basic Drawing techniques? Here are some of the key concepts:

To get at gesture, stop trying to draw the hand or the face. Stan teaches the "CSI" lines (Curves, Straights, and 'S' curves).

Use the "Carving" technique. Start with a primitive shape (a sphere) and shave away slices to find the jaw or the cheekbone. This is infinitely better than trying to draw the contour of a jawline from the start.

You have the course. You have the pencil. Here is your weekly schedule to actually improve.
