About the product

Make (Sneaky) Art: and other ideas to build your sketchbook habit by Nishant Jain

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.

Nishant Jain, also known as The Sneaky Artist, is a local BC artist, writer, and former neuroscience student who left his PhD program to pursue art and writing full-time. His unique approach to “sneaky sketching” has resonated with fans around the world, inspiring them to capture their surroundings quietly and authentically. Through his workshops, newsletter, The SneakyArt Podcast, and social media, Nishant shares his love for observing and documenting life in real time, encouraging artists to embrace simplicity and find joy in small, daily sketches.

If you see someone sketching on Translink or in a coffee shop - it may be Nishant!

A superb, inspiring, and empowering book

I was fortunate enough to attend a recent online demo that Nishant did through Opus and it was GREAT. He shared lots of excellent perspectives and wisdom about just getting out there and drawing and he did it humbly. His advice definitely resonated for me, removed some "hurdles" I'd been feeling, and I've been inspired to get back into drawing. While you may not be able to attend a demo of his (but if you have the opportunity, do it), his book is truly superb. Not only does it contain his great advice, but it really sounds like him which makes it that much more accessible.
