DETAIL FROM LA SIGNORA VIOLA

This is the homepage and gallery site for Liza MacKinnon's artwork. I am a Midwest 3D artist with decades of experience in mediums such as illustration and graphic design to sculpture and fiber arts.  My primary focus is historical fashion made from paper.  I create 3-foot tall sculptures, created from books, maps, letters, photos and currency - domestic and foreign.  Many of the characters are historic figures, some are personalities from fiction and a few are completely abstract.  They can be found on the Paper Garments tab and are arranged by the exhibition they were created for.

Classes! I've put together a series of Paper and Friends Classes to share my artist stash and teach the many forms and techniques I've developed while creating these paper garments. Sign up for my mailing list to keep up to date on offerings.
