Steven Reddy\'s drawing method produces extremely detailed and realistic scenes of objects and scenes in Everyday life in a relatively short period of time (60 minutes to 3 hours or more, depending on the sketcher\'s preference).
Reddy encourages artists to capture in whimsical but detail-specific illustrations their unique, subjective interpretation of their visual surroundings.
This approach is a meditative, relaxing alternative to academic concerns about perspective, proportion, and accuracy.
He offers a versatile technique that can lead to a skill that fills sketchbooks with the visual details that differentiate one life from another.
He reminds artists to slow down, notice, and attend to the sketch-worthy scenes and subjects that are unstaged and always there in our Everyday lives.
Steven Reddy\'s new and easy approach to drawing instructs sketchers to document their Unique and compelling lives in realistic yet playful sketches that record the places, spaces, and objects that help define them as individuals.
