To avoid the snowman effect use straight, angular lines and look for asymmetries. Compare the apex of both sides to understand the curvature better. Look for gesture through the muscle groups. A wave rhythm where the curve on one side leads into the next curve on the other side.
- Keep this in mind the next time you're painting 🖼 You can make something appear closer on your canvas by using thicker paint to create texture #ArtTutorials
- In my livestream today, I'll be going over how I prep for a long drawing and help guarantee a successful piece. I do studies before sinking time in and will be covering three types. If you don't catch it live today, you can still watch the replay over on the Proko YT channel.
- The art of the start... For every longer shaded effort I did like the one in my previous post, I did 10x that many 20-minute layins to practice starting a drawing right. And even more smaller 2-5 minute quick sketches. Balance out quick and long efforts. Both are useful.
- I'm so grateful for the moments I had with you, the opportunities to work with you, watch you do your magic. I will never stop being inspired by you. Your legend will live on for ever.

- Kim Jung Gi inspired millions. We're not only inspired by the way he drew like magic, but by his love & passion for drawing. He drew because he wanted to not because it was his job. Thank you master, for what you gave to the world. I regret not taking more of your workshops. RIP
