MEET THE ARTIST

I like to draw from my life experiences when designing a piece of artwork.

Drusilla Molen

I am an avid painter and potter.  Since my time at Ringling in the 70's, I've concentrated on developing works of art that draw from my experiences throughout my life and from my travels around the world.

Welcome to my Atelier 

My Medium

Drusilla Molen

Drusilla Molen

I use many different and mixed mediums, such as acrylic, oils, encaustic, metal leaf,and resin. Each idea manifests in its own individual way by using the different mediums.  I like using fire, resin, varnish, wax, and gold leaf to achieve the unique finished piece.

My Atelier

My Atelier

Located in Berkeley Lake, GA, my 2,800 square foot Atelier includes my painting studio, a resin booth, and my ceramics studio with two electric kilns and a gas fired raku kiln.

APPLYING CLEAR RESIN TO "DEEP SUNRISE"

"DEEP SUNRISE"

Finished. 2'X4' Mixed media on panel with silver leaf, topped with clear resin by @art_resin to produce glass-like finish



POURING THE CLEAR RESIN

"I like to warm the resin before applying to help spread 

evenly over the painting"

SPREADING THE RESIN

"I spread the clear resin with my hands to apply evenly 

over the painting"

REMOVING DUST PARTICLES

"Even though I resin in a dust free booth, some dust finds 

its way to the painting"

HEATING THE RESIN

"I use a heat gun to heat the resin 

and pop any bubbles or imperfections" 

SANDING BETWEEN COATS

"I sand the entire resined piece with very fine sandpaper after the piece has dried completely to remove any bumps or rough spots and create better adhesion for the final coat" 

FINISHED

"Another perfectly resined painting. 

Thanks @art_resin !

Lily Series Video

My Lily Series includes sizes from 2'x4' to 4'x8'.  Each piece is top coated with clear resin.  The walk-through video shows the reflection caused by the top coat of clear resin.  Photographs of each piece can be seen in my Portfolio.

Waterfall Series Video

This is my Waterfall Series.  I shot the video of the work hanging to show the reflection caused by the clear resin top coat.  Photographs of each piece can be found in my Portfolio.

Sunrise Series Video

This is my Sunrise Series.  Each piece is top coated in clear resin.  The video shows how the clear top coat of resin brings out the rich colors of the painting.  Photographs of each piece can  be found in my Portfolio.
