Observe your world through the pages of a sketchbook and find art in the everyday moments of ordinary life.
How would life change if, whenever you found a free moment, you reached for a sketchbook instead of your phone? Make (Sneaky) Art is not just a guide to drawing on location; it is a way to actively engage with our world and reclaim our attention spans.
After moving to the United States, author Nishant Jain began carrying a sketchbook to better understand his new world and learn to draw. Hesitant to do “this silly thing” in public, he developed a practice of sneaky art—making quick, secret sketches from observation inside a small sketchbook. Make (Sneaky) Art is the culmination of this journey of self-education—to become an artist and a more mindful observer of the world.
In this book, you will find:
Techniques to draw your environment: Learn to draw as a way to be present in your world, free from the distractions of devices and notifications.
Ideas to overcome your imposter syndrome: Let go of the baggage that prevents you from following your creative instincts.
Tips to sustain a lifelong sketchbook habit: Integrate sketching into your daily routine, wherever it takes you.
Today is the day to begin the visual journal of your life.
