Nature-Inspired Paper Sculpture by Tiffany Budzisz
With a lifelong passion for creating, artist Tiffany Budzisz developed a special interest in paper sculpture while studying illlustration at Virginia
Commonwealth University. She worked as an art director in Atlanta for more than a decade before she and her artist husband returned to Virginia to open an art studio, Art in the Valley, in Front Royal, a historic town in the Shenandoah Valley.
As you can see in these examples, she is especially drawn to flora and fauna. The beauty of the
natural world is often found in the details. My goal is to inspire the
viewer to slow down and appreciate the intricacies found in life (and
art), that are often overlooked in our busy, everyday lives.
In addition to paper sculpture wall art, Tiffany makes necklaces and rings that feature a miniature succulent, flower, or butterfly sculpture mounted inside a glass domed terrarium, as well as matted and framed ink on paper drawings... for example, this small beauty, Silver Hills.
Looking for a summer art project for yourself or an older child? Tiffany's paper sculpture dragon or koi fish kits, recommended for ages 12 and up, would be oh-so-satisfying.
Each packet includes fine art paper, a pattern, mat board, easel back, foam squares, and a step-by-step instruction booklet. You'll meet with success and can even follow along with Tiffany as she creates each design via a YouTube video.
The piece below was a commissioned first anniversary gift by a groom for his bride. They had married near the Golden Gate Bridge and the flowers were based on her wedding bouquet.

Tiffany uses an X-Acto knife and archival paper to create exceptional works, hand cutting/scoring the pieces and gently curving them on a dowel. When assembling a sculpture, she glues foam core board between each layer to lend shadows that add even more dimension.
