How to Draw Lips - Step by Step

[@betterdaysbetterdaysbetterdays]

Stan, you've changed my entire way of drawing for the better. Not only am I learning proportions, but I'm taking the experience slow and having fun. *sending virtual hug*

[@reinaldomartinez13]

Heyyy ,Is there progress in your artwork???

[@ProkoTV]

hehe, it was a bit over the top. I figured some wouldn't like it.

[@Rhinestoneshark]

Eight years later and I’m loving it

[@lonelyboi8840]

Cool video

[@hmm.3018]

Proko, you madlad. Your tutorials are absolutely amazing, and its so scarily good at the same time.

😢😂❤

[@varundate4081]

I got attracted towards the channel because of loomis heads videos, I wasn't a very good at drawing faces at that time which was precisely about 4 days ago, now I can draw faces, facial expressions, eyes, lips and noses. Thanks, you tought me a lot

[@ProkoTV]

its on proko.com in the post for this video. I just added link to it in the description

[@fingerhorn4]

Best Drawing/training channel on KZbin, Clear, concise and talented. Thank you.

[@LightningSonic]

You got mad skills. Thanks for the tutorials. I'm learning from these :)

[@OceanSwimmer101]

Hey!! Just wanted to let you know that our class is using your videos to teach me and my classmates how to draw realistically. You make awesome videos!! Our art teacher chose someone really good to use for art!! Earned a new subscriber!!

[@IamALeaf]

but his videos are free... so are you really just paying the school to make you watch something free?

[@RihuwaMidori]

@@IamALeaf maybe they meant premium pack

[@thebcwonder4850]

@@IamALeaf Yes

[@jenm1]

@@IamALeaf they're probably in high school

[@hikari4415]

@@IamALeaf Probably just a course on how to help people easily understand how to draw realistically. I am watching these videos in my high school class and we have projects to draw realistically and he gives us these videos as reference. He also helps us and gives us advice and doesn’t just let the video play and tell us to figure the rest out lol.

[@ProkoTV]

but I decided that I'm just going to be myself :)

[@WisdomThumbs]

Your videos are the only post-high school art courses I can afford to attend. Such a relief to be LEARNING again!

[@guilhermevianabarbosa803]

WisdomThumbs So you had drawing classes in high school? Man, now I see my school was crap, we literally had nothing besides normal classes (and the dance classes for old ppl, but that was something else)

[@WestlyLaFleur]

The step-by-step helps to make the theory in your previous videos more actionable. I appreciate it and I'm sure the rest of your audience does as well.

[@Shamshodjon]

Mr Prokopenko, the way you teach and show examples is just awesome is just awesome.

[@radithmollah8382]

Thank you so much for making these videos. They are really helpful and making me into a better artist. Even though I'm only 13. Again, thank so very much.

[@eXtremeGoLden]

oooo be happy, that you live in such a time, when you can find everything on KZbin. :) And: Continue drawing!! Really! You are so young and now you have the time for learning it and you learn much faster then older people. I wish, i would be 15..... and would learn as much as possible. :(

[@radithmollah8382]

eXtremeGoLden thank you I'm almost 16 now. Lol and I know I have blossomed over these three years in art

[@lanification]

I'm 13....

[@montinyek6554]

Radith Mollah congratz you're an adult now

[@yannickjulien154]

Hey, so has your art style improved since then?

[@switch3]

I can't remember waiting for someone I subscribed to post a video to youtube, ever. Can't get enough of your tutorials, keep it up!

[@khuongle5311]

you are kind of perfectionism in your art, an't you? now I am afraid to show my works to any body because compare to your standard, it is to low. Very inspirational and talent teacher :D. You win a big fan. Telling everybody about your channel. Best of luck bro.

[@IRONANDARTTHOMAS]

Love it! Great explanation of form, light and shadow. Subscribed!

[@BrunoJA]

He's been using a Conte "Pierre Noire"1710 B. Not sure if they're made with charcoal or carbon or what, but they're really beautiful pencils (cost a pretty penny, too, of course). Wide tonal range with deep blacks and the medium is very thick, so they have lots of expressive potential. A bit like charcoal, but waxier.

[@starsiderzesupion]

Wow, the curved guideline was extremely helpful. Got it on my first try! Thanks, Proko!

[@AlokNR]

no no weird is cool! i love your humour. ! keep it ! for some reason this one seemed to take a while.something of the magic of the previous vids was missing.but thats okay.small thing.dont worry.your faithful followers are still behind you :)

[@kitsunethefoxdragon6500]

My high school is using your video as part of our assignment for school

[@fransjanl5019]

These are so great. Especially after watching your shading videos drawing alongside these really nails in the concepts of those videos. I draw with each of them and it makes me feel more confident about my grasp on how to produce a real drawing start to finish :-)

[@kevnieves]

Great videos Stan! The anatomy explanation gives the series bone and structure, no pun intended. Thanks man!

[@DenieceGore]

Thanks for the lesson I enjoyed it... As a beginner I can see things that I never took notes of. I am now a subscriber.

[@Insertnamehere2121]

could you draw someone smiling with teeth out cause the teeth are really giving me a headache :(

[@rosemariepelicano5066]

You should study anatomy

[@rosemariepelicano5066]

And also bone structures😊😊

I’ve been trying to find KZbin videos that could help me with my drawings but I couldn’t find any until now. THIS IS SO AMAZING. Thank you so much. These videos have improved my drawing so much!!!

[@Didi-qf5mu]

hello, i actually tried this and the eye too! the anatomy videos are great ! my drawings went well in fact. thank you for such helpful videos! :)

Brilliant as always. I like how you make the concepts really easy to grasp.

[@zeinabellozy5769]

I DONT KNOW HOW HE DOES IT BUT I LOVE HOW THE LIPS LOOK BUT AT LEAST I TRIED MY BEST

[@MusicLuver1878]

Drawing lips and hands are my weakest points in art. Can you please make a video on how to draw hands? Seriously the best online tutorials I have found

[@slimshady3480811]

Watching these only makes me realize how poorly drawn mine is.

[@lanza3861]

SAME. I have a drawing I did w/ a grid. I thought I cheated, but did I great job. in fact, I took an easy route and the more I look at it I realize it's shitty and flat..

[@BoB-st7jo]

don't be discouraged this guy been drawing lips for 20 years, just take it real slow and note your mistakes you'll be surprised how quickly you can do it well.

[@SyedIbrahim-he7ny]

OMG so true

[@ahshhddhhdhdhdhdshehe2905]

How can u start learning if u don't even know ur drawings bad and what result that u would wanna focus on? plus there's definitely something that u can learn I bet u don't know lips should be drawn as 5 pillows before

[@ProkoTV]

yup

[@jasminebeaverrr]

my drawing ended up looking like two caterpillars having sex

Hi my name is jerry and love ur work soo much.. can u describe what type of materials you use or the best materials you recommend. .Please. ...

I saw magic happening in front of my eyes the way your hand moves as the lips came into life it's almost feels magical

How do you prepare these videos? Gorgeous for every video... Art and talent . I know how that feels. I mean "you're great again "

Fixative spray, like the one you use for hair. Spray it lightly over the drawing and the graphite will stay put.

[@TheLostMedici]

Great tutorial - some of the other tutorials you put the reference side-by-side with the finished drawing, it would have been useful in this case. Thanks Stan - love my premium content too.

[@simon1116]

I have watched all your videos and found them extremely helpful . Thanks so much ! Would you please make a tutorial on how to draw hair as well ? I do realize you have it covered in your personal website but I think it would much easier to understand if you could show it in a video. Thanks again !

Are u using the the same pencil for this entire drawing

[@advg39]

Proko i have a small problem on how far the lips suppose to be from nose when you draw the head for example and you do it like a simple form does you split it into thirds? in which third should the lips are excuse my stupid question but well it's not long since i started take a more tour in the world of drawing.

[@ProkoTV]

AD VG Half way between the bottom of the nose and chin is the bottom of the bottom lip. 1/3 down from the bottom of the nose is the separation between the lips. this image will help: @736

[@advg39]

Proko ok thx a lot

[@eXtremeGoLden]

+Proko Thank you very much! :) Is there a way to find the length of the lips? Something like: the nodes sit under the corner of the eyes (f.e.; i know, that s wrong :) ).

[@theunplannedvlog7]

Its awesome Proko..its too helpful for all. I request you to post some videos for the beginners. And especially the Shading on the face. Thanks in advance and waiting for your reply

Welcome, to a League Of Legends Champion Spotlight. Featuring Proko, The Artists' Savior. Proko is an artist. A great sketcher, who helps his people discover their talents. In game, Proko is a high burst mage that excels at Self and team utility. Q-Pencil Torment Proko tosses a pencil that marks the target enemy, and explodes after a short delay. If Pencil Torment is casted on minions, the pencil pierces towards anything in it's path. If it hits 1 enemy minion, the minion is fully killed and restores 10% mana based on level. W- Anatomy Cage Proko sends out his friend Skelly to surround the enemy champion and roots them for 1 second. E-Smudge Proko smudges the charcoal he throws on the ground. If enemy champions walk over it, they're slowed and take damage overtime. If an ally champion walks over it, they gain movement speed and a shield for 6 seconds. R-Artist's Rage Proko creates a hole on the ground; after a pencil launches, every enemy is knocked up and are stunned for 2 seconds. I was bored so I wrote this.

[@ProkoTV]

+Chronorush please make this game

[@passerby]

Proko it is a game and I recommend you playing it. But I wish I could add you to the variety of characters with a variety of different combination of skills. And also, your videos always help me a lot and kept me motivated to improve my drawings even more. Finally, I am so sorry if I write quite long sentences.
