About Molly

Welcome to my colorful little corner of the internet. It’s so nice to “meet” you! I live in Minnesota with my husband, son, and dog, and I spend most days painting in my home studio or packing up your lovely orders — often while listening to podcasts, sipping chai tea, and running my space heater on full blast (thanks a lot, Minnesota!).

Painting is actually my second career, as I graduated from college with a degree in English and then authored children’s books and worked full-time as a marketing copywriter for many years. Though I enjoy writing, it’s been such a fun adventure to trade in my writing pen for a paintbrush so I can finally live the pipe dream I've always, well, dreamed of. Transforming a blank sheet of paper into a work of art brings me so much happiness and fulfillment, and I hope a sense of joy and playfulness is conveyed in all my pieces. 

When I’m not painting, I love to read, play the piano, and go on outings with my boys — usually to the library or zoo, which are our happy places! 

Thank you for stopping by. I’m so glad you’re here, and your interest in my work truly means the world. Picture me sitting over here at my desk (next to my space heater, of course!) sending endless virtual hugs your way. ♥︎

Molly
