Molly is a visual artist, illustrator and muralist from South East London, now living and working in Glasgow. Molly looks at the honest and unapologetic representation of people who experience misogyny, with an unparalleled and celebratory reclamation and ownership of space evident in her work. Incorporating the aesthetics of bright and considered colour placement with use of continuous line, Molly creates ‘bold and subtly detailed, inclusive celebrations of feminine vitality’. Molly has worked with clients such as Amazon Handmade and The Body Shop to design and create original murals which celebrate their chosen themes to the highest standard. Molly enjoys any opportunity to scale up her bold character-driven style within a mural context, but also works hard to create original work for any illustration work, including editorial, merchandise design, and creating original artwork to install for themed interiors.
