Life Imitating Art

Even before you get to know Tiffany, there’s something about her that you’re immediately drawn to. She exudes a certain indescribable air of cool nonchalance, but not in a pretentious way—she’s just someone that you want to get to know better. And when we do manage to speak to her, we find our instincts to be true. Tiffany works at an art gallery, but in her free time, she’s gained quite a following for her distinctive, intricate, creepy-cool artwork, which she recently started translating into modern-day henna designs. She has a penchant for skulls, occult symbols, and for turning the ghastly into the endearing. Tiffany’s drawing style influences her dress style, or perhaps vice versa; this full black outfit, while anonymous at first, hints at facets of her personality that are waiting to be uncovered. The delicate beaded straps; the unexpected bow tattoo on the inside of her wrist; her phone case, plastered with a bunch of childlike stickers. Perhaps the next time we bump into her she won’t be in such a rush (to attend her yoga class, of course), and we’ll get to know her a little better. View Tiffany’s work here.
