Your Creative Push

Tiffany Miller Russell is a wildlife artist and natural history illustrator.  She delights in the unique and unusual, and her goal is to communicate that excitement with her viewer. Her paper sculptures are created with found specialty papers.  After drawing is carefully made, she hand-cuts the papers and forms them by hand to create a three-dimensional collage.  With the exception of small 5x7s that she creates in limited editions, all of her pieces are one-of-a-kind works of art.
