Studies:

She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2001 and also attended the Universität der Künste in Berlin. She received her Masters of Fine Arts from the University of Southern California, writing her senior thesis, How the Frame was One, on the development both theoretical and symbolic framing devices within art, primarily focusing on two works: Georges Seurat's La Grande Jatte (1884) and Eva Hesse's Hang Up (1966).

Themes and style: 
            Molzan's paintings are often considered as more of a three-dimensional object than a two dimensional surfaces on the wall. Referred to as carrying a sculptural quality, Molzan's paintings are grounded within the practice of painting through the materials she uses, such as oil paints, canvas, linen, and canvas frame. Her work is associated with the techniques of impressionism, abstract expressionism, and minimalism

Techniques:       
         Her work is developed in paintings  and mixed media
