Art & Miniatures
About
I’m Tiff! I’m a miniature model maker and visual artist working from my home studio in Canada.​
​
I studied Character Creation and Technical Effects at University which equipped me with the skills to work as a sculptor and model maker in film, TV, theatre, and, my favourite - stop motion animation. I've created props, puppets and models for a wide variety of commercial and independent studios in the UK and Canada.​
​
I grew up in England but moved to Canada in 2016. I spent 3 years in Vancouver, BC before moving east and putting down roots in a small mountain town not far from Montreal in Quebec.
​
Having moved from the city to rural Quebec, I spent a few years focussing on painting and drawing, exhibiting at local galleries and art fairs, and taking on commissions.
​​
​Recently I’ve put my model making skills back in action. In 2023 I was chosen to be a contestant on season 3 of ‘Best in Miniature’! - a CBC TV competition show that involved designing and building a dollhouse from scratch, and filling each room with handmade miniatures one episode at a time!
That was an amazing experience that sprung me head first into the wonderful world of miniatures, and gave me the confidence to continue on my miniature model making journey. Creating miniatures provides me with the opportunity to merge model making, design painting, and sculpting to bring miniature works and scenes to life.
​
Now, I’m thoroughly enjoying designing and crafting enchanting miniature worlds, bespoke miniature furniture designs and meticulously detailed mini guitars.
​
I have an Etsy shop where you can purchase my unique, handmade miniatures!
​
I am also open to custom model making projects. If you have an idea that you want brought to life, contact me here.
