Molly Gorman Dumas resides on, and is influenced by the craggy Oregon coast. Having studied fine art under renown Chicago artists John Weber and Sandra Jorgensen, she has refined her craft in hand-pulled linocut block prints, painting and drawing. 

Dumas transitioned from block print abstractions to greater realism during her career track in private education, as well as her treasured years of mother- hood and environmental exploration. Her later work radiates in vivid color, reflecting the vast spectrums and gradients of life experiences and the natural world.

Her commissioned illustrations, rendered in graphite, colored pencil or acrylic, include portaits, birds, landscapes. Her illustrations of ships have been published in books by author Rod Scher, and are available in prints.  Various block prints, paintings and drawings are available in greeting cards.
