Amazing!!!! Big fan of both of you ! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😃
PERFECT!!!!!
New artistic drawing tutorial from Prpko XDXD
The video thumbnail was creepy.....
Michael is awesome! Thank you for providing this content, it's super valuable especially when having his book to study along with.
Theres someone who spams using your name to contact them on Telegram. Should I message them?
no way, I was literally searching for this all over TH-cam
Me too dude.
me too
I wasnt!
But im glad i found it!
@TopatTom the non-capitalized i says a lot about you
Yep, that's how youtube algo works. You search something and it gives you videos you search for.
He taught my figure drawing classes in college. Really great instructor.
god, im lowkey jealous
Best gesture drawing video on TH-cam, hands down. Haha 😂
Seriously, the Proko channel has done more for the promotion a art-making than anyone or any art academy ever. Thank you to Stan and all your instructors. Will buy the book today!
i was literally going to get this book today from the library but got caught up studying/practicing gesture all day and now this video pops up giving such wisdom, its funny how the universe works lol, thanks michael this was really eye opening
Not the universe but the algorithm
@@LorneSound 😂😂
@@LorneSound The algorithm forced proko to make that video?
@@asseroy yes…
It's a hell of a class, man. If I wasn't a broken artist in a country with such a fucked up economy, I'd totally contribute to all this work. This thing is gold. 👌 congrants for all the effort, Proko team. 👏
This video taught me more in 10 minutes than a full semester of evening classes in figure drawing.
Been drawing whole my life, gone through countless tutorials, but this is hands down the best anatomy teacher. I love his book and how easy everything is explained, it helped me a lot and it will keep influencing my work. Thank you for being here for all artists, Michael!
His anatomy book is my favorite!! It's amazing to get to see you working with him. Favorite TH-cam Channel + Favorite Anatomy Book Creator?! THANK YOU AND YES!!!
You can tell from Michael’s demeanor and tone that this is all too easy and simple for him. His understanding and deconstruction of the complex human form is incredible, all the while he explains it in such simple terms. The man is a genius.
Gesture drawing is fascinating and hard at least for me I’ve been struggling with it for months now, the (apparent) simplicity of it reveals how well u understand the human body rhythms and structure it gets specially tricky when u try it in perspective thanks for the lesson Mr Hampton and Proko 💕👍
ive been drawing as a hobby for years (digital anime stuff) but i just did gesture drawing in my college class yesterday and it stumped me so hard. Seeing everyone else's gesture drawings really hit me hard as to how ignorant I am in terms of art basics. I had no idea where to start and how i should be doing gesture drawings. This video helps give me a place to start. Thanks michael and proko!
I love the detail and reasoning behind each line.
Awesome work again!! I follow your videos, and they’ve really helped me grow. Thank you to all the artists who make these videos happen!
This book! This is the first book on figure drawing I ever had! So cool to see these drawings done live.
Michael Hampton is a master. So glad to see him on Proko
I've watched some videos from Michael's TH-cam channel, but having him explain and detail his process is a nice plus, thank you.
What a wonderful teacher. Amazing technique, very precise and insightful advice, great dry humor. Can’t wait to see more from him!
Really a great video. I work a lot on gesture and have slowly been coming to most of the same conclusions myself but having it said so plainly really solidifies the ideas.
this was exactly what I needed! I always felt that my gesture drawings done from life drawing class were not entirely useful when drawing from imagination. It's because I was focused too much on making the gesture look nice and flowy, but not enough on the information that I can derive from doing the gesture! That would be things like the direction the spine is bending, the tilt of the head, how the feet is planted and how weight is distributed, and which main muscles are flexing/stretching. I was always told to view gesture as a more loose and creative process but being able to connect it practically to anatomy has definitely helped me design better looking figures from imagination!
Finally Michael Hampton!!! I couldn't understand how to start thinking about anatomy before his book, totally value
When I first saw the gesture without reading who did it I KNEW IT WAS MICHAEL HAMPTON!! So happy to find your work here! Big thanks for all your tutorials! :)
I'm taking Michael's Brainstorm class right now and he's incredibly insightful (and also one of the most encouraging teachers I've ever had). Highly recommend! It actually pairs really nicely with the Proko figure drawing course if you've already taken that.
I’ve had Michael’s book for years, so excited for this one!
realizing I have to focus on the proportions when drawing dynamic poses with expressive gestures was the game changer for me. It is a hard concept to discover on your own. Thankfully there are channels like this that help so many artists like me
This is so good. I'm learning Perspective basics on shapes and forms and doing 2-5 min gestures a day. This really helped break it down for me in a comprehensive way. Detailed exactly how the body would be naturally built and how it wouldnt. Hopefully after a month of doing this I will be able to come up with and design gestures without a reference.
WHEN I LOOKED AT THE THUMBNAIL AND SAW THE GESTURE I RECOGNIZED HIS GESTURE STYLE I KNEW IT WAS HIM. I HAVE THE BOOK RN AND I FIND IT SOOOOOO HELPFUL. THANK YOU PROKO AND MICHAEL HAMPTON. UR ART IMPROVED MY ART VERY MUCH.
I've been following Proko for years now, is the first time I've heard him talking about Michael Hampton, possible missed that video.
Anyway. This one is amazing. Figure drawing design and invention is the first drawing book I've bought i was just attracted to his approach to the design of the figure, And is perfect for
Just yesterday started to study the book. This video being published now prooves life is a simulation. Thanks :D
Amazing! I loooove Michael Hamptons figure drawing and invention. I learnt so much from it!
Took a class with him over the summer, and he is amazing :)
I was literally searching for video of combining gesture drawing and anatomy like week ago on your channel. Awesome, thanks!
Dude I think this is the first time I see Hampton's face O.O
Ever since I got his book, it's been my main anatomy study supply. So nice to see him here!
Outstanding lecture! Thank you so much for posting this. Just bought the book!
YESSS I WAS STRUGGLING WITH THIS! IT'S AWSOME
This is so perfect since I've been learning gesture
Michael Hampton book gave me such a good understanding of 3D form. I recommend it to everyone!
Thank you for this clear tutorial.Just bought the book on amazon. Better to learn this after Proko's anatomy lesson.
One of the best anatomy books ever
I had Michael Hampton's book And I'm so glad I found This Video So That I can learn From The author himself
This couldn’t have come out at a better time for me
Literally was reading his book last night. Great timing 😌
Me too
Mosttt awaited video ❤️
Love Michael Hamptons books!
Master Hampton in proko, wow.
I have your book and is a great book.
I bought it after its publication. and it's amazing. It helped me a lot in an anatomical drawing class. MY RESPECTS.
and Proko you are great too, I have also bought your drawing courses (the old ones not the new ones). I would like sometime to handle the Loomis method as you do. MY RESPECTS.
Michael Hampton is here ? Wow!
I learned from your book! The best gesture drawing book in my opinion
Steven is the greatest professer I ever had in college. Man I miss those figure drawing classes.
I have his book, and now just starting watching his channel so I can understand the concepts that are hars for me to get unless I see it in a video
Great explanation 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Thank you 🎉🎉🎉
loved this video plz make michael H come more often on the channel
This has to be the weirdest coincidence. I have this mans book on my desk that I have been referring to for gesture drawings. Then I just said to myself "How do I combine gesture and anatomy". Then Proko uploads this with THE ANSWER, THE AUTHOR, and THE BOOK! wtf..
His videos are also super instructive imo. It replies to that question through doing exercises.
YEs! I needed this!
Thank you so much!
I have his book. Amazing artist. Proko, really like your videos.
You guys HAVE to mention it's THE MICHEAL HAMPTON in the title of the video. I clicked on the video because the gesture felt familiar but I wasn't sold on the video until I realized that this was Michael Hampton himself hosting the tutorial.
No waaaayyy! such a gerat video! first time i see him on video. Amazing. Thanks
I had his book for 2 months now and Lately I saw it was a bootleg version rip. But I was slowly learning through it and then I saw this video. Thanks it was a great help.
Wow this is the type of video I was looking for. Please upload more videos with him. Also if possible please make some videos with Diego Lucia. Some tutorial from him would be awesome.
I’ve studied fashion and your videos really help me with the fashion figures. I’m hoping you could make a few videos specifically for someone like me , who’s here for the fashion figures
nice to watch right before I go to life drawing class
i definitely did not expect this one :0
Wow!!!. Thanks very informative.
So great !!! I will always subscribe and follow this channel ❤❤❤❤❤
Everytime I think or watch Michael Hampton, I'm thinking of Michael Mattesis face. I just learned now that there are two Michael that teaches gestures. I watched and saved some videos of Michael Hampton thinking his face is Michael Mattesis face.
Definitely one of my favorite books and approach to figure drawing! Always love to see the best at the craft collaborating with Proko
A system - YEAH! I’ve been doing gestures akin to swatting a badminton birdie….and with similar success. Thank you Proko and Michael!
Making this 1.5x really saved my time.
The Goat Micheal Hampton, Has come to explain
Woah, finally Michael Hapmton here 👏
When I read the book, I thought the author is some oldies from 1980s or something. It's really glad to see you sir. And it's a great video.
Brilliant. More please! Full course perhaps?
Oooh thanks, I have the book and yet I haven't realy used it since I have 0 idea how to actually use it/apply the stuff in it, hope this gives a head start
ahhhhh I loooove this
brilliant!
amazing
Thank u
No puedo creer que el Sr. Hampton no haya aparecido antes, es uno de mis referentes por excelencia. Vayan a su canal, tiene muy buenos videos demostrando su método.
What’s his channel called? Is it just his name?
@@spookyjones6577 S. Michael Hampton
Hey it’s teach! 🙌🏽 I’m currently in his Brainstorm class😁
This is interesting. I have seen this book but never bought it before. I just checked the link you provide and the price is double what it was just a little while ago. I did a separate search myself and see the regular price ($31) but of course it is out of stock. I will bookmark it until it comes in. Thank you.
I remember when I went to the art institute of the inland empire (now defunct). I was taught by michael hampton. Sure I wasn't great by the end of it, but god damn did the guy teach me a lot about drawing. I didn't draw at all before going to that school, I did 3D modeling for fun. By the time I had dropped out I had a good set of skills under my belt for drawing. I wish I stuck around but it was just so god damned expensive. I didn't really keep up with my training but recently I decided to relearn. I've been using his book to help. Very informative stuff, I recommend it: Figure Drawing Design and Invention
Reminds me of Michael Mattesi's force drawings.
his eyes are so beautiful wthhh
I can’t understand how to apply the Hampton gesture when there’s a character just standing facing the camera, symmetrically. Any ideas?
this video on his channel talk about your problem:
th-cam.com/video/a21_BFl2n14/w-d-xo.html
YOOO THATS MY PROFESSOR!!!!!
Mr. Hampton would u plz make a vid on arms and hands.
Took his class at my uni it's a shame it wasn't in person
These are great videos 👍
But most people expect to see a couple of videos then they expect themselves to draw masterfully, stick to the basics before moving into more advanced skills master the basics with consistent practice and knowledge 😉
omg , my master here
I’ve been studying the arm as my first step into figure drawing, I knew about creating features using flowing lines beforehand but never how to actually turn those into proper figures
10:06 Mr. Hampton suggests that he "throw it back"... what a legend
Very nice video Proko! Thank you for it! I have a question, he told about the movement and non straight lines but what about standing figures? Is there a 'gesture study' for this kind of pose? Or is just a matter of construction?
I was literally reading his book . damn ...
Thank i
Thanks :>
Nice
I actually bought Hampton's book.
It was too difficult for me though Dx
The dude in that thumbnail cracks me up every time I see it. If there was a gesture called “I’M A BARNEY BADASS!” then this would be the gesture.
I put the new forgis
Video straight from my god??????
Thanks proko
great video, came in for the dr. livsey thumbnail stayed for the knowledge
8:58 Michael saying Story and Siri turning on a second later lol
