Draw with Confidence Like a Pro - Eliza lvanova

@prokotvAbout
Hey there! My name is Stan Prokopenko, I’m an artist and teacher. Proko is a resource for artists to get good art instruction videos. When you watch Proko tutorials you’ll notice that I try to make them entertaining while keeping them educational. I feel that if you’re having fun and enjoying the learning process, you learn better. You retain more information, you pay more attention, you’re much more likely to continue learning and more likely to go back and re-watch tutorials. And it will leave you more inspired and motivated to go practice. I’ll be your host for most of the videos, but there will be other instructors that will appear on this channel as well. If you're an artist interested in doing a collab feel free to email me :) Get Premium Drawing Courses: https://proko.com/store Become a Proko Affiliate: https://www.proko.com/affiliates
