This week I’m joined by UK-based artist, illustrator and curator Tabby Booth, whose work treads between illustration and traditional folk art painting.&nbsp; We get into the tension between being an “Instagram artist” versus a “real artist,” the snobbery that still lingers in traditional galleries, how to push through cringe to find success online, and the creative challenges of commission work. As an artist, gallery owner, and artist manager, Tabby offers a rare perspective on how the industry is shifting on all sides. She brings so much insight, honesty, and humour to this chat, plus a healthy dose of screw-the-naysayers energy. You can find Tabby’s work on her <a href="https://www.tabbybooth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website here</a> and on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tabby.booth.artist/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram here,</a> and check out <a href="https://sailorsjail.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sailors Jail Gallery here</a>.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
