"A finger can't do it all, but it can do a lot!" ... truer words have never been spoken, my friend.

[@shill2920]

[@auroradotpng]

[@artunblock9433]

Edges rule

[@IIScarletKingII]

Saaaaame... saaaaame.

[@larrychu6396]

Like for drawing and painting ? 😅

[@Ron_Sensei]

Finish it

[@wnuZeLLionaire]

I also have great edge control.

[@Ron_Sensei]

Grip by grip

[@RemoteGhost-u2t]

Every great artist edges😎

[@mikekazz5353]

Oh cool proko is teaching us how to edge.

[@eddiejones8540]

I too am a night owl....my best art is from 11pm - 5am.....for my edges I use fingers, q tips, cut up rags...anything to get me a swipe! LOVE it thank you for showing me how to get better! I to paint with a hat.....Black Godfather and a silk scarf tied around my neck.

[@stevethomas9320]

Edges are a great tool to master. I've been working on improving mine for several years now, lol

[@TheDudeYouLookAt]

First time I knew about the topic before watching 😊

[@ReasonRaisin]

Hiroshi Yoshida 1876 - 1950 was known as a woodblock print maker. His design, drawing skills, color strategies, harmonies produced some of the most beautiful images in the history of art making. He didn't have a soft edge in sight. I have heard it said the last thing an artists needs to concern themselves with is edges....and I believe it.

[@greatwhitesufi]

however did the seo for this video knew what they were doing

[@ProkoTV]

I don't know what you're talking about 😏

[@dakotahsimonson631]

😂😂

[@bryankopkin6869]

I got some edge control too 😏

[@MojoRisin-dm1ep]

I think most of these skills come naturally if students just spend more time looking at an object than they do drawing or painting it great video 👍

[@43En]

I never go to bed without doing a bit of edge work myself Morgan ;D

[@qheswa]

Great work Morgan

[@tripplejaz]

Morgan’s work is incredible. Would love to learn oils from him one day.

[@Taktak21]

I LOVE edging and this helped me so much thanks ❤

[@yolandatapay6345]

I Edge ,therefore, I Goon.

[@michaw7408]

Man, I love edging

[@ProkoTV]

We had to wait til after November to post this video.

[@amandanorris8]

Wooww... 😂

[@InAHollowTree]

Comments section did not disappoint.🤣🤣🤣

[@Darkness_Damage]

wow i never thought that traditional artists could do the "flip the canvas" with a mirror, good to know

[@arufu6339]

I don't know about canvas but I turn my sketch pad upsidedown as another alternative

[@Darkness_Damage]

@@arufu6339 damn i feel like an idiot for not thinking about obvious options, thanks btw the "flip the canvas" method is only done digitally, or so i thought

[@arufu6339]

@@Darkness_Damage yeah taking inspiration from digitally flipping the canvas, I used to take pictures then flipping it but it's taking more effort than I'm willing to do so I tried other alternative, and found putting it upsidedown, I later found out somewhere that artschools use that same technique to train artists' eyes to see portraits as shapes than a face as a whole, so it's cool I found it on my own :D

[@pspspspspspspspspspspspspspss]

This will definitely improve my edging technique! Thanks Sir 😊🙏

[@limb-o7180]

I like soft edging, it's really satisfying

[@Colorado-Coyote]

Title could have been Edging for beginners

[@keepyourshoesathedoor]

👀

[@Die.Trying]

You can tell Morgan Weistling and Jeff Watts come from a similar lineage as they have the same explanation of edges. I love these videos

[@JuliusSendula-g1q]

wow! i didn't knew Morgan's on Proko! You should make him a featured artist lol But really this is such a privelege

[@jolienyin]

The painting reminds me of Jayce from Arcane so much

[@pointfull]

even arcane has a lots of edges and edging

[@AnisCheurfa-m1m]

Thank you ❤

[@Farozurshad]

That thumbnail is wild. 💀😭

[@Moltzenn]

Whats wild about it……..

[@Jacy-dx6dx]

Elaborate

[@Radientzone345]

Get yo Head out of the gutter bruh 😂

[@aztro.99]

ur cooked ngl

[@Salsamderdritte]

Thy edge shall be controlled and free of scum!

[@YuiraKun]

Right after inktober is the yearly edgevember

[@Scabby_daddy]

Edging to this rn

[@chikihando2483]

There is another

[@stillhuman64]

edging 🤤

[@rajwardhanpatil6317]

why the use of mirror? at 9:10?

[@ProkoTV]

Looking in the mirror gives you a few things. You gain some objectivity to spot your mistakes by seeing it from a new angle and you can check your proportions and make sure you're not unintentionally skewing something.

[@ReneeParmleyKennedy]

I think yall knew what you were doing with this vid title

[@ProkoTV]

I SWEAR it was sincerely named. About 10 minutes before we released it, it became clear there was room for... misunderstanding lol

[@Doomlordof]

Somehow this reached the wrong and right audience

[@obvv7714]

I’m edging right now.

[@RemoteGhost-u2t]

😭😭Morgan? Is it Christmass yet?

[@Novar-0613]

The guy in the thumbnail looks like Jayce from Arcane.

[@mackietattoos]

Scrolled to find this! I think so too!

[@19pgs85]

What the hell, a couple of swipes with his finger and the whole thing came alive. 😮

[@jeanpierrepolnareff9919]

Great artists never stop edging! Pd: be careful with video names or youll get memed on

[@yochlel2642]

Everybody down here better be normal about this one

[@thetokutickler]

*Reads the comments* "Oh thank god it wasn't just me"

[@TheAzhighwayman]

Bones are hard, Tissues are soft! some edges are lost...

[@artunblock9433]

This lesson is so edgy

[@ProkoTV]

We see what you did there 🤔

[@RealFableFox]

Any reason (at least to my untrained eye) that you use different skin tone? I mean at the end of the video, you are selling a portrait course. i think my customer would prefer that i get the skin tone right.

[@ProkoTV]

Morgan has an aesthetic preference that you can see across his work. At the end of the day, this doesn't feel wrong. It's idealizing with an aesthetic twist. You can make your color choices as you wish as well. The concepts of painting within the course aren't teaching the aesthetic. The concepts are yours to apply as you wish.

[@LUPITHE0NZ]

start edging every time the word "edge" is said in this video

[@hundaobonso]

now

[@teriipapa7811]

Yeah I find it hard to focus on drawing without edge control.

[@AyatoSama-wh8lk]

I'm the first to like and commentthis video. 😂 Random

[@ProkoTV]

*Second. Better luck next time!

[@coralfishnt7663]

I'm also a night owl which really doesn't help me with edge control.

[@Zequisity]

:3

[@mr.pickles9791]

Man speaks so clearly that i thought it is AI. Good gosh, i mayhaps been doomed.

[@angimauri8092]

another way to spot AI- it only knows hard edges.

[@vegathibault2964]

Jajajaja

[@KpxUrz5745]

I am not a fan of the methods shown here. For starters, I don't like the use of such a small brush to noodle around here and there repeatedly and rather hesitatingly. I find the paint is too thick and pasty. And we end with a painting that I view as unsatisfying and weak "contentwise". Therefore, to me, this is an illustration, not a fine art painting.

[@bozoclown2098]

Your use of values says things about people that are inaccurate.
