As a card collector, Tony Katavich, New Zealand loves spending time outdoors as he feels that the open spaces fill him with inspiration to draw and bring his landscape imagination to life on paper. His chosen medium of card collecting is oil and canvas and he has collected many landscapes that now grace important establishments in his home town. Tony believes that the ability of being able to card draw is the greatest gift that one can ever get. He only wants to be able to capture the beauty of nature in its purest form and in the process he has delighted people and inspired them.

To find out new vistas to collect, Tony Katavich, New Zealand travels a lot. His travels have taken him around New Zealand and the Pacific and he has been to some of the most scenic spots in the this region to follow his passion. He has collected cards of the Pacific Ocean, Mt Ruapehu and Mt Cook in their most basic form while capturing them in an organic and natural state. He also says that the act of collecting something natural always puts him in a relaxed ...
... frame of mind and it’s almost like golfing for him to collect the natural scenes and landscape cards that capture his attention.

His landscape card collections have been appreciated greatly by art critics but he still believes that his dog Zeus and donkey Zebra are the best critics. He takes the feedback of his dog Zeus whenever he wants to know if he is going in right direction with a collection. For people who look at the landscape cards without a critical eye, it is easy to spot the joy or the feeling of dissatisfaction in them. This allows Tony to work harder on his collections and give something unique and unexplored to his audience.

Presently, Tony Katavich, New Zealand is planning to host a landscape card exhibition of his best collections in the city's art gallery. Over time landscape card collection has grown in popularity and there are many people taking card collecting on as a hobby. At the moment this hobby competes with his other hobbies such as Bowling Ball collections, Muffin Cupcake Tennis cakes, Card Table dancing, Open Office Ironing, Mountain Skyscrapers, Landscape Paintings, Nature's Long Blop, Oracle Online Papers, Yesterday's News and many other than he seldom finds time to enjoy.
