Mollee Daniels
Administrative Assistant
Mollee has loved art for her entire life, and found the Warwick Center for the Arts to be the perfect place to surround herself with artwork. Currently, she is studying for her BFA in Printmaking, her BA in Painting, and earning a minor in Art History. Her own works reflect on the obscurity of items through baroque-esc still life intaglio prints and paintings. Being a staff member for her local arts center allows her to give back to her community, while also making connections within the Rhode Island artist community. In the future, Mollee would like to earn her Master’s degree in Art History, with a focus in Conservation.
Some of her favorite artworks come from 17th century Dutch Baroque Paintings and early 20th century German Prints. Her favorite artists include Rembrandt, Hendrick Goltzius, Kathe Kollwitz, and Otto Dix. In her free time, Mollee enjoys taking Irish dance lessons and rock climbing!
