A structured drawing course for home practice

Richard Taylor’s course organizes drawing practice around core principles—line, tone, light and shade, positive and negative shapes, and perspective—then puts them to work through exercises and 10 draw-along projects. The projects move between indoor studies at a desk and outdoor work capturing panoramic landscapes. Its home-course format is designed for practice in short daily sessions or across a weekend, with simple materials and a progression from foundational skills toward independent projects.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults beginning to learn drawing
  • Learners who want guided exercises and practical projects
