Artist Statement:
Mollie is an acrylic painter specializing in Modern Surreal & Fantasy Art. Her focus is creating conceptual art that while naturalistic, definitely pushes the bounds of reality. Her work reflects her love of storytelling, and each piece has its own unique narrative or concept meant to inspire the imagination and provoke thought. Her whimsical color schemes and style set her apart, but her stories are the true show stopper. The average viewer can appreciate the surface beauty, but to those willing to look deeper they’re sure to discover its hidden depths.
