LalaLiu aka Tiffany Liu is a twenty-something's (yah, one of those) dreamer based in NYC. To be less metaphoric for those who hate metaphors, she is an illustrator, designer, artist, & inventor. She is also an aspiring red head. Since genetics is not on her side she shall forever remain an "aspiring" red head. As a little girl, she also loved to draw. It was one of the first things she learned to love in life. That and canned green beans. Weird right? Her mother saw her passion and sent her to fine art institution. She is proud to have accomplished her first live nude sketch at the tender age of twelve, a feat not many twelve year olds can brag about. Eventually, her passion for arts branched into a love for fashion. It was only natural that her curiosity for creation would go from the 2-D to the 3-D. She went on to study at the University of California Los Angeles and received her B.A in Business Economics and Communication Studies in 2010. The summer before her senior year, she had decided to move to New York to pursue my dream of becoming a fashion designer. After graduating, she left the land of eternal sunshine for the land of art, culture, fashion and angry people. She studied fashion design at the renowned Fashion Institute of Technology. There she learned how to translate her ideas into a reality (and how to not sleep for three days straight). After graduating in 2011, she went on to work in the fashion industry as a fashion, graphics and web designer. [Now switching to the first person to sound less pretentious and more connected to the reader.] After all this time in the big grown up world of work and play, I've finally realized what I want out of life (the essential theme of being a twenty-something's isn't it?). I want to create and never stop. I want to build the positive sunflower cult and bring the world whimsy and quirk. I want to express the infinite ideas of my mind with my hands until I get carpel tunnel and even then I will still keep going. I want to do everything. My life is too short and I too much of an appetite for learning to settle down for one field of art. As I grow, my work will grow along with me. Didn't someone wise once say the journey is more important than the destination? I think that just might be true. Nah.
