“The Boop Collection” is an ongoing explorative series Tiffany began in the winter of 2009. Her art is primarily mystical and surreal themed consisting of both experimental and refined works. Inspiration for her creations ranges from of this world and the ether. More specifically, she is inspired by her travels, friends, family living and passed, strangers, mythology, religion, nature, yoga, along with a wide variety of subject matter. Tiffany’s artistic adventures include traveling worldwide photographing, drawing, painting, and researching different cultures. Her experiences and research have been and will continue to be a source of inspiration for her work.

 

She uses the alchemical process of painting as a therapeutic tool. For her the process of creating is equally as important as the product. As an art educator, her goal is to supply children and adults with tools to channel their creativity and heal through their art.
