Tiffani
Taylor is a native of Ogden, Utah. She was taught to
seek an appreciate the beauty of nature at an early age
by her mom and grandparents. From as early on as she can
recall, Taylor knew she wanted to be an artist and paint
every day of her life. She fulfilled her dream,
attending the Savannah College of Art & Design for her
bachelor degree in painting (2002, graduating
Valedictorian, and earning a master degree in Art
History (2003). Her work is currently shown in galleries
internationally and is widely collected; currently in
the collections of Andre Leon Talley, President Paula
Wallace, Oprah Winfrey, and Diane von Furstenberg.
Taylor's paintings and
pottery are created from memories of being in nature and
remembrances of travel, especially to Paris and Italy.
Themes of spirituality, freedom, gratitude, and beauty
pervade her work. The splattering of paint and
expressionistic brush strokes evoke the immediacy of the
moment she is remembering and describing on canvas.
Taylor's stream-of-conscious poetry is used as both a
compositional device and an outlet for the overwhelming
emotion felt at moments of such beauty: sketching the
dancing red poppies while growing up in Utah; studying
the red cardinals outside her window at home in
Savannah; after viewing the Sistine Chapel; and
stumbling upon exploding colorful flower markets in
Rome.
