being one of Aaron's camera crew during that trip i gotta say we had an absolute blast. was awesome hanging with ya Proko and hope to do this again in the future
I like seeing each artist's differing approach to a subject. Aaron is definitely more anatomy based while Proko is more shape and form based, and both work perfectly fine.
I must say it is good seeing such a competent artist such as yourself struggling with cats. It shows that even those with a lot of skill are always learning and growing:)
I love this video of you interacting with another artist out having fun together and coming up with creative games to play. I know youve done this in the past but I would love to see more!
I’m going to sound really selfish here.... and totally don’t mean it in that way. Seeing Proko as such a talented artist messing up here and there from time to time kind of made me feel a little bit better about my drawing abilities. It lets me know that even the best artists struggle sometimes and it’s okay to struggle and not be perfect all the time.
Matty Betty he just proved that ur good at what u practice. He never practiced drawing a cat. Soo he was not the best at it. Aron is good at it because he has done it gazzilion times. And if we are honest.. He would have done the same good drawing, even if the cat wasnt there. :) hehe.
this is so lovely i know Proko and he has so many subs and still he is never aftaid of collabs that way he guides us to specific dimention of art that we yet have to explore and while he is pro in his own direction there are other things to see, watch and learn, i admire how he delivers this simple but very fascinating advanture that he goes through to us. i love ppl who love learning and creating but what is not completelyin their range they can teach us too by sending us to right direction, i took his path but i have an options too, this sort of thing from an artists(meaning offernig other great ppl and thus showing respect and objectivity) is very impressive, i appreciate everything this man does!
I can't look at those asphalt walkways without remembering 2 things....The wax casting machines when I was a kid, and a certain 70's sitcom opening "come and knock on our door......" Actually Threes Company was LA Zoo, this looked like San Diego Zoo with the asphalt paths.
AARON THANK YOU FOR YOUR BRUSHES...... unlike these scum bag companies they arent for the artist but you are and help us not only use your brushes but use them for ourselves and whatever we want to do with them!!.... i bought all your brushes!! and videos! thank you man!! youre on my top 5 artist today ...your all around level is insane
Lol I’m laughing because how Proko was standing there like Tiger can you be still just a second and Aaron Blaise was almost done while the tiger was moving. Lol I know your pain I don’t think I can draw a moving subject.
Hey Proko, what's that fancy camera rig you're using for your drawings? I do a lot of recorded art for work and that thing looks super helpful and portable. Thanks man, I wish to see more videos like this.
Awesome drawings! You both have so much talent! I know that one of the advise that you (Mr. Blaise) always give is to draw from real life. My question is, how on earth do you draw something that is constantly in motion?
Enjoyable to watch. What type of pen, long point/brush, was Aaron Blaise using in the early part of the video: talking about cats and snow leopard? Thank you for sharing :).
Great sketching content! It is an amazing opportunity to draw such magnificent creatures from life. However, zoos are prisons and these wonderful animals are not there because they had a choice. They are captured or bred for entertainment purposes.
Spending the day drawing animals at the zoo with a Disney Animator like Aaron Blaise - what a dream come true for any artist in my field. The only way it could possibly get better would be to draw with Glen Keane - I learned so much watching you both thank you so much for this!
I remember watching this a few days after it came out and as soon as that orangutan came up to Aaron I dropped everything and went to the zoo with my sketchbook and had the best time
That little break where the shell stops in front of the eyes is called "the stop." Cockers have a very prominent stop where a Bull Terrier does not have one.
