Brooke Molla

Brooke Molla is a printmaker and painter living and working in the low desert of Arizona. Her woodcuts are made with found wood, metal, plastic and power tools. All of the prints are created without a press which allows the artist to create prints in any size and in any location. Her inspiration comes from the insignificant objects of nature that are mostly found at her feet on sidewalks, insects caught in spiderwebs or found under a porch light. Also the quick glimpses of nature viewed through the windows of houses and cars. These objects that are found or quickly seen such as seeds, leaves, parts of insects and animals are the foundation of her landscapes and portraits. They are the clues of an active world of nature that surrounds us but a world that we very rarely see and know very little about.
