The human landscape in paint

Portraiture and abstraction. Paintings to live with. Portraits to cherish.

‘Molly, Thank you so, so much for these beautiful portraits. I honestly can’t tell you how much they mean to us. You’ve captured something so much more than just how the boys look there is so much of their little personalities, softness and spirit in them, and they feel incredibly special.

It’s such a gift to have them preserved at this exact moment in their childhood, and I know these are pieces we will treasure for the rest of our and their lives. I keep looking at them and finding little details I love more each time.

Thank you for putting so much care, feeling and talent into them. They are truly so special to us 🤍’

The Monochrome Portraits

Since 2025 I have added a new portrait style to my portfolio of portraits for commission: a series of small monochrome works on 20cm square canvas board. Painted in subtle gradations of light and shadow, these portraits capture the essence of the sitter with economy, simplicity and immediacy. Contemporary yet timeless, they offer an alternative to my larger oil commissions while carrying the same depth of character and presence.

Hamish Mackie, Sculptor, on Molly’s portraits of his daughters.

Portraiture, at its finest, transcends likeness. It becomes a vessel for memory, for the essence of a fleeting moment, for the quiet presence of a life unfolding. To be entrusted with capturing a family’s story across generations is among the most meaningful honours of an artist’s practice. The choice of British sculptor Hamish Mackie, himself a master of form and vitality, to ask me to paint his daughters was a great honour.
