"I knew I was going to be an artist from the time I was 2 years old," declares the ebullient Utah native, who admits to setting up still lifes in her room while other girls played with dolls.  The valedictorian of the SCAD class of 2002, Tiffani became accustomed to working on the floor during her student days because she couldn't afford an easel.  Now that she has gigs like adorning pottery for the Dali Museum and sales of her original pieces are flourishing, she continues to keep her Savannah studio simple, save the one luxury of fresh cut flowers.  "When you're living your dream, you don't need anything else.  Though it is nice to have air-conditioning."  Tiffani's signature layering of brilliant acrylics with gold leaf, ancient maps, sheet music and occasional coffee grounds conveys a reverence of the natural world and her humble amazement at life itself:  "My work is very much about gratitude."
