“McKnight’s modernized designs act as a psychedelic slide into a pool of ever changing movement. Readers will discover that adding color to the vast maze of NUVEAU will offer an inner reflexive experience that breaks the traditional definition of “artist.” Plus, it’s all for a good cause. ” —Garrett Davis, Territory OKC
“There is so much energy and complexity to her confident patterns that they tend to set my troubled mind free, especially when I’m facing writer’s block or creative constipation. In NUVEAU, she continues the important work of reflecting our connection to nature with consciousness-expanding designs. Tiffany has created a blueprint for tapping into your creative side with her gorgeous, soporific patterns—it’s up to you to finish the amazing work she has started.” — Grace Gordon, Fashion Features Editor, Savoir Flair
Tiffany McKnight was born in Miami, Florida, and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She received her BFA in Studio Art from the University of Oklahoma in 2012. Her art is often inspired by her love for color, African textiles, Art Nouveau, and biology, and pays homage to the vibrancy she experienced growing up in Southern Miami. She currently resides in Oklahoma City and continues to expand her vivid style through an array of media. You can find her patterns recently published on the labels of certain flavors of San Francisco’s Clearly Kombucha and on luxury wallpaper produced in collaboration with SixTwelve and Ketch Design Centre. Tiffany was recently named a 2016 Angel Award recipient. The Angel Award acknowledges unsung heroes who have effected positive change in the lives of others.
