These are then assembled in layers to create images of birds and other animals. Milton draws inspiration from the natural world and from old botanical and ornithological engravings. She is the daughter of the German artist Wolfram Aichele and granddaughter of the celebrated animal artist, Erwin Aichele. Their paintings have also provided inspiration for her work.
