It’s kind of nice to find that an artist I admire is living and working in the same city as me*, because I do tend to spend a lot of time finding art etc online and it’s often far away. The irony of telling you about this on a blog does not escape me.
Anyway, Tai Snaith is a wonderful Melbourne artist who works in both illustration and 3D – check taisnaith.com to see what I’m talking about. I adore her llama creatures. Her little panda cards are achingly sweet too – not available from her site but you can get them at Robio (on Gertrude St next to Little Salon), or at Tai’s shop on mintd.com. They’re about $3-$3.50 each, and they’re totally frameable.
I have it on good authority that there are a couple of new card designs coming soon…

*which is not at all to suggest that there isn’t a host of amazing artists living and working in Melbourne, just that there are also many amazing artists living overseas, many of whom I find out about online.
Question: what’s the collective noun for a group of artists?
