Welcome to SketchesBySteve, a space where the beauty of nature is captured through the eyes — and hands — of Stephen Nakra.

Stephen’s love for drawing began in childhood. Growing up, he was often found with a sketchpad in hand, inspired by the world around him. From peaceful parks to dramatic landscapes, he found joy in observing the details that many might overlook — the shape of a tree, the curve of a winding path, or the stillness of a quiet lake.

Spending time outdoors played a huge part in shaping Stephen’s artistic eye. His childhood was filled with long walks in nature, family days at local parks, and moments spent simply admiring the scenery. These experiences sparked a lifelong passion: to draw the beauty he saw and share it with others.

Today, Stephen brings those moments to life through SketchesBySteve — a collection of artwork that reflects his love for the natural world. Whether it’s a misty woodland, a blooming garden, or a sunset on the horizon, each sketch is a tribute to the calming, grounding beauty of nature.

Thank you for visiting. We hope Stephen’s work inspires you to pause, look around, and find beauty in the simple scenes all around us.
