Zoo Sketching with Aaron Blaise - Drawing Lions, Tigers and Bonobos
Can you believe I got to sketch at the zoo with the animator of Lion King, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, and Brother Bear? Aaron Blaise is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to drawing animals. The time I spent with him was super educational and humbling. It was also just a really fun few days.

did you try to use the loomis method with the animals?
Had such a great time! Can't wait for you to make it down to Florida so I can drag you through the swamps and we can go drawing on the boat :)

i like how stan just does a quick sketch but aaron is like "DETAILED"😂
I'm a simple sketcher. I see Aaron Blaise, I press like.
I like seeing each artist's differing approach to a subject. Aaron is definitely more anatomy based while Proko is more shape and form based, and both work perfectly fine.
11:30 Oh my god Karen came by and watched Aaron Blaise draw. That was so cute.

I must say it is good seeing such a competent artist such as yourself struggling with cats. It shows that even those with a lot of skill are always learning and growing:)
proko no piko
I loved Karen watching you do her portrait!!! So fun!♡♡♡
I love this video of you interacting with another artist out having fun together and coming up with creative games to play. I know youve done this in the past but I would love to see more!
It's so awesome seeing these two drawing! 2 of the best artists out there

Not even close but hey its alright man
this is so lovely i know Proko and he has so many subs and still he is never aftaid of collabs that way he guides us to specific dimention of art that we yet have to explore and while he is pro in his own direction there are other things to see, watch and learn, i admire how he delivers this simple but very fascinating advanture that he goes through to us. i love ppl who love learning and creating but what is not completelyin their range they can teach us too by sending us to right direction, i took his path but i have an options too, this sort of thing from an artists(meaning offernig other great ppl and thus showing respect and objectivity) is very impressive, i appreciate everything this man does!
Two favorite artists drawing together - this what I call a great Christmas present!! Please make more videos like this!! Happy holidays)
Super cool. Eye popping energy in Aaron's stuff and I can totally see the Watts craft in Stan's work here, particularly in the gorilla.
This was so great! Loved watching you both sketch!
This must have been so cool to do together! Loved watching both of your videos.
That little break where the shell stops in front of the eyes is called "the stop." Cockers have a very prominent stop where a Bull Terrier does not have one.
Loooove these types of videos! Seeing you guys sketch from life is suppeer inspirational :)
Holy shit when the animals came around to look at their sketches, I want to be that powerful
I laughed so much at this! But I loved it so much, I hope you guys do more of these!
Aaron Blaise is a master artist. So much seasoned!
I love it when you team up with your fun artist buds & draw together.
Amazing video Proko! Thanks for that!
Thanks for sharing this. It was great fun to watch and quite instructional. I am NOW checking my calendar for my next visit to the zoo.
Such a great video. Stan, your videos bring joy to my life! And afterwards I really have an urge to grab my art material and draw, paint, all of it. Thanks for inspiring people!
Really cool idea for a video! Fun & instructive. Thanks guys :D
Spending the day drawing animals at the zoo with a Disney Animator like Aaron Blaise - what a dream come true for any artist in my field. The only way it could possibly get better would be to draw with Glen Keane - I learned so much watching you both thank you so much for this!
That's a good idea. I'm between semesters at the moment with an all year long zoo in town. Time to make a trip tomorrow.
This is AWESOME! Aaron has such an amazing style, every time I see his work I'm like 'sweet Jesus Christ...how?!' haha.
Amazing !! thank you for sharing those experiences !! you guys are great artist and great people as well. thank you so much :D
Enjoyed this so much. Thank you for sharing!!
Love this video!! Such great artists!
Top 10 Anime Crossovers~
This really looks like a great time. I'll definitely be bringing my sketchbook to my next zoo trip!
That was a GREAT collab!!! Thanks to BOTH of you. Very inspiring!! AND entertaining!! Lauri
As a person who's trying to get into illustrating ... this was brilliant. Thank you Proko... and I am humbled by Aaron Blaise. Didn't realise how prolific he is. Nothing but
I really enjoy watching this, thank you guys¡¡
So cool to see your two different styles!
One of my favorite videos by far! Thanks Stan and Aaron!
Aaron draws big cats very artistically. :)
I had so much fun watching this amazing video! Thanks @Proko thanks @Aaron!
Wow Amazing!! It's a pleasure to see you together! Masters!
Aaron Blaise is the master of Animal anatomy! Great video. Please do more like these sketchwalks!! please! :)
I’m going to sound really selfish here.... and totally don’t mean it in that way. Seeing Proko as such a talented artist messing up here and there from time to time kind of made me feel a little bit better about my drawing abilities. It lets me know that even the best artists struggle sometimes and it’s okay to struggle and not be perfect all the time.

Matty Betty he just proved that ur good at what u practice. He never practiced drawing a cat. Soo he was not the best at it. Aron is good at it because he has done it gazzilion times. And if we are honest.. He would have done the same good drawing, even if the cat wasnt there. :) hehe.

Thanks for this great video!
Omg I can't believe that my two favorite channels cooperate!!! I'm so happy!
I love how the animals came to watch xD amazing work both of you!
I love how the section of the video where the giraffe runs away from Stan is literally called “Giraffe runs away from Stan” 😂
Proko you're so lucky to meet this man. He's my inspiration
Proko and Aaron blaise! fantastic! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The interaction with de orangutan was amazing... What a connection, man!! I really love this video...
*PROKOPIKO THE ART TEACHER*
I could watch all day
This was great! I want more!!!
Awesome...Merry Christmas!
The two most awesome art teachers ever.
That was wonderful on lots of levels.
Aaron Blaise is left handed! Me too, buddy! (This is from 2017, but still I get excited to see other left handed artists.) What a great video, by the way. I was thinking of going to the zoo this summer for some sketching. We're still in a pandemic, but ours is open. I hope it never closes.
Totally enjoyed the video
Wish I could’ve been there. I live here and draw all the time at the zoo. I follow you both as well.
two great artists☺
BEST VIDEO I EVER WATCHED ON ANY CHANNEL M2 HEROES
10:22 gave me goosebumps. True art lover.
I seriously want to see you guys draw with Karen..
I love these two guys
I remember watching this a few days after it came out and as soon as that orangutan came up to Aaron I dropped everything and went to the zoo with my sketchbook and had the best time
My .... great master drawing skill . I love it
I love these videos, but especially this one, drawing animals with Aaron Blaise :D
Love these videos
THIS IS BY FAR THE COOLEST VIDEO IVE EVER WATCHED
你哋好搞鬼。 兩位都係高手 both are masters. Love the humours that you both are carrying. That’s why I love your art. Am a Procreator too. Can’t wait to get back to Chicago to draw that lady tiger again!
This is so awesome!
AB genuinely loves the animals, you can tell by how he looks at them.
Awesome drawings! You both have so much talent! I know that one of the advise that you (Mr. Blaise) always give is to draw from real life. My question is, how on earth do you draw something that is constantly in motion?
Omg your style channel it's so funny in this way everything stay most easy to learn😁😃 loved,Kiss of Brazil!
Wow karen is awesome
I once went to a zoo when I was on holiday, but they only had a dog. It was a Shih Tzu.

i lost it at "what kind of dog is that?". you guys gotta do another video together again that was such a fun video to watch
great work...
Enjoyable to watch. What type of pen, long point/brush, was Aaron Blaise using in the early part of the video: talking about cats and snow leopard? Thank you for sharing :).
two awesome artists and teachers : D
Huge fan! You make excellent videos and I am a proud follower/student of yours. I have a question. I started using a lead holder after seeing you and Cesar Santos using it and I love it! Here though, I see you're using a thicker one, and is that charcoal you're using? Or just a thicker lead? Thanks!
The master of figure drawing and the master of animal drawing meet each other
Kazoo track during the giraffe sequence is pretty goddamn intense 🤘
amazing video!
"What kind of dog is that" -Stan. Wait a minute, that's not a dog...
very nice vid, great watch!
I can't look at those asphalt walkways without remembering 2 things....The wax casting machines when I was a kid, and a certain 70's sitcom opening "come and knock on our door......" Actually Threes Company was LA Zoo, this looked like San Diego Zoo with the asphalt paths.
Fun! Love the video!
"I gotta take a leak" Well, I found something do just like Aaron Blaise! Its something I practice every day. You need consistency.
this is amazing !!
Awesome. What a day that must have been working one on one with Aaron.
