Paul Taggart’s Essential Sketching & Drawing Guide – Module 1

The simplest of sketches can be jotted down on a scrap piece of paper, with whatever you have to hand by way of a drawing tool – the result doesn’t matter. It is what that sketch comes to signify, which is important – whether it serves as a visual memory, or as an inspiration for a painting.

That first sketch can lead to a lifetime of creativity, which is therapeutic on so many levels – I should know, for it is through my earliest of sketches, as a very young child, that my passion for creating artworks began - a passion that not only forged my professional life, but also stimulates my every waking day.


  • The art of sketching and drawing can range from the simplest of quickly rendered sketches, through to the most detailed of tonal drawings – the choice is yours alone to make.

  • Sketches and drawings can be rendered using a wide range of possible equipment – from the simplest pencil to an exciting range of water-based tools.

  • Sketching and drawing sits alongside painting – as an equivalent art-form in its own right or as a companion to painting.

We are breaking down the art of sketching and drawing even further than we’ve done before, back to the bare essentials, so that whatever your level - whether a complete beginner, or someone who wants to develop your sketching & drawing further- you will enjoy the results of working-along with the projects.

We kick off with Module 1- in which a 2B pencil is our drawing tool and this eighteen-video box-set featuring three, step-by-step, work-along projects, in which I share three specific techniques. Each of the three projects comprises six video tutorials.

Each project starts with a video in which I feature one drawing tool and share tips on how to use it.

For the final video in each of the three projects, I guide you step-by-step on the method of how to exploit the 2B pencil, working from start-to-finish, on a sketch of a simple still-life, a flower-study and an Italian landscape.

Work-along with me, on these three of the most common subjects, at a pace to suit you and let your pencil take you on this journey of discovery.


The Gift of Sketching & Drawing – to Last a Lifetime
