About the artist:
“Hey there, I’m Molly (she/they)! Welcome to this corner of the internet where my creative world unfolds—a place shaped by vulnerability, resilience, and the belief that it’s all compost. Life’s mess—the wins, losses, love, shame, and struggle—feeds the soil of who we are becoming, and my art is rooted in that cycle of breaking down and blooming anew.
I’m a mixed media artist, storyteller, and creative guide, and my work is all about finding beauty in the layers—literal and emotional. I explore the in-betweens: the tender, uncomfortable places where shame lives, and the messy, miraculous process of transformation begins. My art is deeply personal, shaped by my experiences as a woman, a mother, and someone who chose to leave behind a life and belief system that no longer fit.
For me, creativity is more than making something beautiful—it’s survival. It’s a way to untangle what we feel, to make sense of who we are, and to connect with others on a deeper level.”
